nora2018: The mob you use for house cleaning. The handle is what I am referring to, that you should use as a stand. You tight the dish to it and look for an open space to try out the tp. Just to get an idea of where the signal pops up. Then after you have gotten the signal.. You can now mount your dish on the wall or roof in that exact position. The whole idea is for you to just experiment with it to find out where is best to nail or hang your dish. Instead of having to pull the dish hanger from anywhere you have nailed it before initially, because you could not get a signal. It doesn't really have to be a mob stick.. It could be a short pole or even a normal wood that is not less than four feet tall. I hope you get the picture? |

nora2018: LNB skew = between 3.0 clock / 4.0 clock Dish size =90cm for 3/7 degree west. For better signal ( though you can still get it with 60cm , depending on your tracking skills and the signal strength in your location) Dish size = from 60cm to 90cm for 51.1 east (TSTV POSITION) 1 Like |

nbolaji: The issue of decoders have been discussed on various layers in the previous pages. However, I have a quick question for you, the answer you give will give way for the right suggestions. How much I you willing to spend on FTA? |

Digitman: Based on the fact that astra 28e is set as primary,Nigcom is just few cm above. You get my point? |

waleayeni1: Also try to always observe line of sight. Because a slight blockage /obstruction can easily making your tracking difficult. Especially when you are tracking satellite position that makes the dish not to face the sky. Also a satellite position with a tricky signal or alignment. The attached image will give a clue to what I am trying to say

Digitman:good day bro. pls how good is strongest stg 900a decoder? I need a good decoder that will enable me watch many channels and won't be expensive |

Cheny: OK bro now I got the reason why you said that, apologies. Never knew it was a multiple LNB install. Was thinking it was a single LNB install. 1 Like |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Digitman(m): 11:52am On Oct 06, 2020 |
Acrofab: If I may, it's not about how many channels a decoder can get. But the quality/ premium channels it can actually give you. So for me, quality/premium always win over quantity. As regards to the strongest stg 900a, I have to be sure about the spec before saying it's a guy buy. So maybe I will just google it and come up with an answer. Or better still there might be a first hand user here who can help us out with that. Meanwhile, strong 497S is good if you're willing to spend above 20k on a decoder. While OURTV decoder is also nice if you don't want to go above 12k Other than that, you can look for decoders that are H.265 enabled but cheaper. Which seems to be the norm at the moment. 1 Like |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Digitman(m): 11:57am On Oct 06, 2020 |
adubam: Excellent... He can still make 42e primary and attach 28e as secondary to the LNB holder below. Then 51.1e TSTV on top of the 42e as the third LNB. Just a thought |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Spy360(m): 12:00pm On Oct 06, 2020 |
Digitman:Please announce any free channels even the ones with $ on it, as long as it is showing. That's the essence just as you stated... enjoy while it lasts... Infact the truth is no FTA is permanent. They may last long for years but can never be permanent. So let's feel free to announce any new sweeties. Regards |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by adubam(m): 12:07pm On Oct 06, 2020 |
Acrofab: If it is HEVC 265 enabled Multi stream auto roll powervu, then go for it. If not, go for this good and favourable price decoder: Csat Pro 8 + for N7,000. |

Digitman:Hi gurus, I have Nigcomsat as primary and Multi TV as Secondary, can I still add 16°E to the set up? |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by adubam(m): 12:19pm On Oct 06, 2020 |
SegaWarrior: Very Possible but you go suffer to get it. See my Picture above. Make Multi TV primary, Make Nigcomsat Secondary and while facing the dish by your right below the Multi TV; just search for 16e while moving the LNBF around the iron holder using this frequency 12333 H 30000 1 Like

Spy360: Exactly. If everybody dey lock up, simply because it might be encrypted anytime. Then we all would have been stock with boring joyTV position over the years. |

adubam: Bro the suffer na part of the thrill of FTA. Especially if the guy finally catch the signal. That thrill will be amazing for him. Nice one bro 1 Like |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by adubam(m): 12:33pm On Oct 06, 2020 |
Digitman: Yes. But the signals will be badly reduced. For me Multi TV/ Badr for MBC is a must to be Primary. If you make Nigcomsat Primary anything you attached to the set up will have huge loss of signal quality. |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by adubam(m): 12:36pm On Oct 06, 2020 |
Digitman: Some suffering no worth it especially if you are using small dish. All those attachment will still be affected by heavy rain and wind. |

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Cheny(m): 2:11pm On Oct 06, 2020 |
@ adubam & Digitman,Una well-done.Your valuable info will help the newbies here. I just hope we don't see a flurry of questions on same issues that have been treated already. Some guys don't just like reading. And for football lovers here,with ur multi lnb set up on 16e,28e,and 32e, you can get to watch a mix of Epl, laliga & bundesliga on GTv sports +, Max TV, Avy news & our TV. At least these ones can be enjoyed for now. |

Cheny: You are really on point. Some just don't want to go through the pain of reading. They just love being baby fed. If the people that are dishing out the info did not take the pain to read, research and undergo the practical. I don't think they will be so well informed to give out information and help. I remember back in the day when I was new to this FTA thing. I made sure I read from page one to the end before even attempting to ask anybody questions here. Even in this present day, I still take the time out to read previous pages in this forum. Just to keep up to date with what has been happening. Because for so long a time, the son of man has been busy with other affairs of lives besides FTA. All and all.. It pays to read as many pages as possible. Because by so doing, even if you're new to FTA or old to it. You just might have the right answer to some, if not all the questions that might pop up here. Less I forget.. Thanks for the info you dish out. Someone here will definitely find it valuable One love 3 Likes |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Digitman(m): 4:02pm On Oct 06, 2020 |
adubam: No doubt. I think the beauty of FTA, comes when you don't overly compromise or try to cut corners. That way you don't always have to be disturbing yourself over signal lose or weather conditions as you rightly pointed out. Because trying to eat your cake and still have it, is not really the best approach to enjoying a stress-free FTA. 1 Like |
