my dear is not working, someone told me in the forum yesterday that it has come up ,when I got home I connected my signal meter to confirm what he was telling me, the signal was blinking up and Down u cannot even use it to scan ur decoder.

Some of us just want to be negative all the time.Nigcomsat has been up since yesterday morning till now.It's either your setup is bad or you are so much in a hurry to be negative. You posted a picture of a dish that clearly isn't pointing to nigcomsat. What are trying to achieve by confusing people.Na wa o

hahahaha, well there is nothing that cannot happen, if God is by ur side, most time I do some research on any satellite to see if I could be able to come up with something useful to all our members and the society in general, white men never tired of going into research, my brother try and get a bigger dish like 3m dish and keep on with research God is by ur side ,I need people like u to work with, but always try to use www.dishpointer.com it will give u the distance where the satellite is beaming from.
HOW WILL I USE THIS APP IF I DOWNLOAD IN TO MY PHONE?

which app are u talking about pls?
Just type in the location u are then click on the satellite list and select ur desire satellite and click go ,it will give all the information on that particular satellite . There is one u can download , but this www.dishpointer.com just type it in any of ur search engine it will open. Like the information I sent to u now for nigcomsat just subtract ur offset angle from that true elevation that will be the desire angle of ur nigcomsat

If u want to download app, download dish align from ur andriod market , that one is just to give u the azimuth direction is like compass ,that is if u don't have the hardware ,I mean the real compass

You mean Dish Aligner? I've been using that app and Satellite Director, another app. They do give an idea at where to point your dish after you've input the Sat details

do u have satellite HD though am using I pad the application is very clear to u, is quite different from the one From that satellite director, I used www.dishpoint always with my normal compass and inclinometer and it worked for me so much, one thing is that u must subtract ur offset angle to get ur true angle of elevation, just like when u are tracking the entire arc, after getting ur true angle of elevation u minus ur declination angle to get the real angle u position ur dish on. Unless u don't know how to use it well. But do u know how to get ur offset angle in an offset dish? And do u have inclinometer as well if u have it make installation easy for u.

If Satellite HD is available as android app I'll definitely try it. My handset has GPS & it calculates the elevation & azimuth of any Sat. Frm there, I could rotate my phone horizontally & vertically. When I'm on the right axis, the app buzzes & I simply position my dish on that axis and fine tune. Don't need to do any calculations or require inclinometer/ compass.

Please which Decorder is currently the best to buy that is HD....... I mean the best and it's price please the last one I was using spoiled
You can go for the Digisat or 4D Lazer decoders,i use the Digisat in my office,they are sold for 10k,although i can sell for nairalanders for 9k,they are both HD decoders,if ure interested.I would send it to you.

bros, this calculated elevation true elevation is the calibration on the pole? if am right, that means the dish will be looking towards the floor. pls,if u can help attach a picture I will be glad.

Oguguolouis:

they will be a good bet when their signal stablizes the have good channels and will still add more. i see them beating multi tv out of naija in few years to come if they improve and remain FTA.
How can Naija channels be free,remember Ghana is the gate way to west africa.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Oguguolouis(m): 8:18pm On Jul 01, 2017
ANY UPDATE ON NIGCOMSAT? Any new channel? And stability of the signal?
