[quote author=Monlo post=60780486] My dear forget it,they have since reduced the signal strength of that tp.Hitherto was on 1.8m here in the North,even now my 2.4m dish cannot bring that tp down,however all other tps on that satellite are live .......??. Enjoy!.[/quote

baggiosne:Both East and West are still on. At the moment I think the west is more difficult to track with 1.8m. |

tziz:Hello bro, that T V'S tuner is awesome! but first get a separate decoder/receiver and track any FTA channel.after you have gotten pictures, you then disconnect from the receiver and connect the TV with the coaxial cable.if you do auto scan you will not get any response.You need to manually key in the frequency and the SR.. once you key in the correct values , the tuner will quickly scan for the channels and save them. |

Chinedu7:The best lnb position for tracking 99% of C-band is also 3oclock because with that you need not rise or lower tilt towards the South when using bigger than 1.8meter dish. However, for those with 1.8m, you can put the dish at a level plane whiles facing the sky and also remember to be on the arc, when you hit NTA ,enter the frequency for AFN, Get the highest frequency for AFN, once you are over 70%, just blind scan and MTN package will appear.For first timers using 1.8m, you cannot track MTN West directly, your focus should be on AFN signal. |

ugotuf:how far is it from ses5@east |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by abohwun(m): 7:43am On Sep 25, 2017 |
kingsley6:yes I have done it before. |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by ugotuf(m): 8:11am On Sep 25, 2017 |
daddy001:Standing behind your SES5 dish, it's the next bird you will hit as you turn right. It's about 8 deg far from SES 5e. |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by ugotuf(m): 8:22am On Sep 25, 2017 |
kingsley6:It's very possible, Mark the position of your 7w, tract 3'w and afterwards just place the 7'w lnbf on top of 3'w with 1cm space in between them. NB. I did it on 90cm dish so the space between the lnbfs will vary with dish sizes. |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by daddy001: 8:50am On Sep 25, 2017 |
ugotuf:is the elevation as high as Ses5: Thanks |

lincolnola: Sorry I don't have an open decoder to show you, but if you open your decoder you'll see that a small squared chip, about the size of of a fingernail. Just give it to guys who work on decoders and tell them is signal problem. |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by ben1daEbiri(m): 10:11am On Sep 25, 2017 |
ludakristos:Haha... even your description is confusing.How can something be squared and round at the same time? |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by ludakristos: 10:30am On Sep 25, 2017 |
ben1daEbiri: Lol. Sorry. Ignore the round pls. Its squared. My village people at work! |

Those with srt4950H can smile now as software for sp24 is ready for download. http://www.crosat.us/upload/index.php?action=view&filename=SRT4950H_V4.18p_25092017.zip&directory=Strong%20Receivers%2FStrong%20WIZKID%20Files%2FStrong%204%20Middle%20East |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by eerekake(m): 4:59pm On Sep 25, 2017 |
Goodday house,i'm finding it difficult to track sp24.I tried it for almost 6 hours in my 3.5m mesh dish in west,i got NTA 97% and AFN 77% still no way.I then turn to my 2.4m pan dish for east,i got TCHAD 71% i tweak and tweak the Lnb still no way.I used 17kk supermax lnb.What am i not doing right? |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by abohwun(m): 5:29pm On Sep 25, 2017 |
eerekake:Did try changing the the direction of your plate. |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Monlo(m): 5:35pm On Sep 25, 2017 |
eerekake: With that signal strength on Tchad,you should get it,am currently on it.Do change the position of your dielectric plate,Manually input this tp and scan:4096V30000.I dont have that high signal strength,yet am cool,even as attachment as secondary LNB on my 2.4m pan dish.Thank me later. Enjoy. |

House how about 3d tech autorol can it do the best for sp24? |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Chinedu7: 6:28pm On Sep 25, 2017 |
eerekake:I said earlier that the West is more difficult to get now than the East because of that tweaking. Follow these tweaks * I recommend glass over plastic plates. * With Supermax lnb, drop it in until the number 32 line. * Place the glass plate vertically. * Place only half of the plate inside the lnb while the other half will be outside, like half and half. But for the East, normal Kwese TV lnb setting is good enough to get it. Good luck. |

Sport24 is back on SRT 4950h with the latest firmware 4.18p and very easy to track with 1.8 meter pan. Yummy

Chydobe: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_Broadcast_Broadband_TV Chinedu Odilibe Emmachile I guess this settles it. The decoder is embedded with dual function tuner, hence most Beinsports will be IPTV, but quality may not be HD, in order for it not to freeze or buffer. Hence one Device that would be showing satellite TV and Broadband TV. The broadband is powered by the dish, for those we are used to VSAT technology, they would understand. The internet that would be needed for transmitting the internet TV channels is surplus, the reason why there's extra 20gig for subscribers. I can liken it to gas flaring in the ND. Situation where total data volume needed would be like 50gig for 24hours view of the IPTV, but actually, ABS is producing 70gig per month. Instead of wasting the extra 20g, they give to subscribers as bonus. If not for anything, people can subscribe just to get the 20g, cos their speed would be 4.5g which is higher generation to IPNX, Spectranet, smile, mtel. Its a package of paying 3000 naira for a service of N50k per month. More like semi FTA 1 Like |

ugotuf: I'll consult my motorised dish to move from 1° to 3° west |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Chinedu7: 9:19pm On Sep 25, 2017 |
davodyguy:It's exactly what I thought but still a very good deal. I will definitely have it. No doubt. 1 Like |
