It's very possible unless something is wrong with your accessories. If you are sure your dish doesn’t have bends, and it's 1.8m. Then I suggest you get yourself eurostar lnbf just to make sure that problem is solved. Then if nothing happens, then change the plastic plate to glass plate and if nothing happens then you really have to adjust your dish as a final measure but I can see you do all that and still complain.

Thks. I will try just that. I really appreciate.

Econet Media is giving DSTV a run for its money, as it has signed a deal with the English Premier League to show premier league matches for free.

On Wednesday, the Premier League announced that Econet Media, owned by Strive Masiyiwa, a Zimbabwean tycoon, struck a deal valid for the 2016/17 and 2018/19 seasons.

“The Premier League is pleased to announce that Econet Media has acquired the package of free-to-air broadcasting rights that it makes available in sub-Saharan Africa,” Premier League said in a statement.

“The agreement is for the three seasons 2016/17–2018/19 and Econet, through its Kwese Sports platform, will make available one Saturday afternoon Premier League match live on a free-to-air basis each weekend of the season.

“The matches, along with weekly preview and review shows, will be available in 50 countries across the region.”

Speaking on Kwese and the Econet media deal, Masiyiwa, who is also Zimbabwe’s richest man, said: “Kwesé TV is our new soon-to-be-launched satellite and broadcasting network, wholly owned by Econet Media, a subsidiary of Econet Group.”

“After the launch of Kwesé TV later this year, I’ll also use this as a case study on how to set up a major business venture like this one.

“Timing is important in business. Notice that I didn’t shout out, ‘hey guys, I’m bidding for the English Premier League.’ Do it first, before you start talking about it!”

Richard Scudamore, Premier League executive chairman, expressed his pleasure at the deal, saying: “We are very pleased that Econet Media has chosen to invest in the package of free-to-air broadcasting rights that we have made available in sub-Saharan Africa.

“Premier League clubs enjoy passionate support across sub-Saharan Africa and these rights are important to ensuring that as many fans as possible can follow and enjoy our competition.”

Kwese has already acquired rights to show matches in Spain’s Copa del Rey, cricket, and rugby from other parts of the world.

Robin Jellis, TV markets expert at Sports Business, told CNN that Kwese may have a challenge getting into the market, but it is planning to rival South African rival (DSTV) – who charges $40 to $100 – on the long term.

“Econet is expected to lose money on its Premier League deal, but it is a strategic move to build an association with the league ahead of launching Kwesé TV,” he said.

Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the Premier League’s fastest-growing audiences, with an estimated 276 million viewers tuning in each year.

That is no good news because what they Just purchased is matches that are supposed to be free to Air. What if they decision to sell it, now free to Air matches will be scarce on TV.

ugotuf:

I did the tracking around 1am yesterday so I could not snap pix. I used a 0.1db lnbf with the cover peeled off, skewed @7o'clock. I tracked just 2-3inches to the left of 7 degree(I assume that you know where that is and how to track it.) using 11804/V/27500. NB. If you perfectly skew your LNBF at 7, the only and first bird you will hit to the left of Madagascar using the freq. Above is 9degree. 99% sure. Try it. And get back to the house.
plz where do u reside in lagos. May be you can help my ministry. I have try but d bird is very stubborn. Here is my my number 08056554569 plz you can drop yours let me call you to help me out tnks.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by coderXO(m): 8:01pm On Mar 30, 2016
Who can help me out here. My 4922 is giving me power issues.

It does not power up. When you hit "on" it does not respond. When you go back to "off", it blinks an "8" or "-".

I took it to Oshodi Army Arena, last week. The tech took it from me and fixed it (not in my presence).

He turned it on and it came up as usual. All good.

I got home, went to turn it on and it goes back to the previous issue again.

Never comes up, yet I saw it power up when at Oshodi.


Help.

Sure you can use 4669 to track the bird but you may not enjoy the Sat with it as some of the channels there are power vu while almost all the sport stations there are HD and 4669 cannot handle those.

Thanks for helping me out i will try to get HD decoder

When you track it with srt 4669,did you scan it with the same receiver to make sure it was StarTimes signal? If yes that you got startimes channels with srt4669.then connect startime decoder and go to menu enter installation then go to auto scan. the channels will appear.

Again make sure your polarity is correct. Strong receivers can work with reversed polarity but others may not. Make sure your lnb is around 6 o'clock.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by DatechMan(m): 8:09am On Mar 31, 2016
I want to do a new installation using a 1m. A friend has advised me to buy alphabox instead of Strong. He says it can open ccam and powervu.
Please house I want to know if this box has a downside. Is it better than a Strong decoder?

Thanks
