giggspro: Yes it can multistream Yes it is an FTA enabled decoder Price should be less than 10k ( but don't quote me on that because I am not a marketer) 1 Like 1 Share |

levis2kk: MBC is still very much alive in this satellite positions 42.5 degree east 26 degree east 7 degree west. I don't know which of these your dish is pointed at. So check your dish and signal and do the needed alignment. Good luck 3 Likes |

eddyline: A multiswitch is a device used With DUAL/QUATTRO LNB, to distribute satellite TV signal to multiple decoders/receivers. It can rang from multiple decoders and even more decoders can be connected to it . It is a system configuration that is used to supply satellite/ TV / radio signal, through one single cable, in order to limit installation cost. Multiswitch is commonly installed in blocks of flats/ commercial buildings/ hotels. To allow every resident to receive satellite signal without each resident having to install a separate dish to receive satellite signal in the same compound/ location. From a layman's definition ( through the help of a multiswitch, that is how an installer can connect signal to as many as 8 Dstv decoders/receivers (but not limited) in a hotel. Without having to install 8 dishes to get the signal needed to service the 8 or more decoders in that system configuration. 1 Like |

[quote author=Aizenosa post=94319204][/quote] Here is a picture of a crude method I just did right now with a binding wire for you to have an idea. So you can modify with whatever tools you have handy, to package the installation to your taste. Good luck

waleayeni1: If you can lay your hands on a bigger dish; you might be lucky to get those channels on either a C-Band or Ku-Band |

eddyline: You don't really need a multiswitch if you're not running a hotel or guest house. For individuals, except you're living in a block of flats where you want each flat to have access to all channels in a particular satellite, what you really need is a dual, quad or octa output lnb. Even for a 5 bedroom duplex an octa (8 ) output lnb would suffice. The extra cost of changing a single lnb to a dual or quad and running extra wiring is way lesser compared to what you would spend in purchasing a multiswitch with its attendant wiring complexities. 2 Likes |

Digitman:what is minimum dish size for this bird? |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Digitman(m): 10:46pm On Sep 26, 2020 |
baggiosne: I have not really been opportune to try it with a dish lesser than 90cm. Because I don't have such laying around. But if the dish you have is less than 90cm , then you can just give it a try and update the house. No pain... No gain. |

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Digitman(m): 12:09am On Sep 27, 2020 |
1kinggy: Definitely you can. But let me point out one downside to this configuration. If decoder A is on and you decide to put on decoder B, and each are in two different satellite channels. Then the signal to decoder B will not come up. But if decoder A and B channels are on the same satellite position . Both channels signal will be stable. For example you are watching Joy TV @28.2 degree on decoder A , and someone else decides to watch MBC2 @42.5 degree east through decoder B. The signal will not come up because there is a conflict. However, if the two decoders will not be on at the same time, it works or if both decoders will be on the same satellite channels, it will also work as well without any conflict. So it boils down to how comfortable the person using feels about it or ready to make that compromise. 1 Like |

Digitman:I don't think so, because if such problems arises. He would have complained to me. |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by GeorgeD1(m): 8:20am On Sep 27, 2020 |
ogbeh44: Bro, there will definitely be polarity conflict with this set up (like Digitman already mentioned above) except somehow your client's choice of stations have been wonderfully so aligned that vertical and horizontal TP channels come up simultaneously whenever both decoders happen to be powered on same time. For this kind of set up, the usual convention is to use separate diseqc switches with dual LNBs for both decoders. That way, you avoid all the hassles of V and H conflict. |
