I have a 90cm dish with an X2 premium HD FTA receiver (some chinese receiver I found online). I managed to get the keys and I am now getting StarWorld and Star World movie too.

After days of twisting and turning I have finally managed to get a watchable picture on Yahsat 1A MENA on 12169 H 27500 here in Kampala. Got Fox Movies and Fox Middles East. Couldnt get better than 45% quality but its all good. Now I just have to figure out how to get and enter keys for Star...

What are bb channels?

Good morning guys, Around 2 months ago I bought a cheap ($48) chinese HD FTA receiver online and since it was my first foray into FTA i had basically been concentrating on scanning and seeing what sats I could get. Recently however I was checking out all the menus and I came accross one for...

For those in Kampala, what is the best Kuband LNB you can recommend that I can buy locally and where I can get it. Oh yes price range to if possible.

Thanks Kungu, After alot of turning and shifting I managed to get the 12169 transponder at 41%. However it is very fickle and the slightest change makes it disappear. However in the past I have had some issues with my LNB and cable which could account for this weak signal. Let me me sort that...

Thanks Kungu. I managed to get NSS 12 although it was a little elusive. But I am still having trouble with the Yahsat. I keep moving up until I think its too far and then I come back down to NSS 12 to try moving up again. I dont know if I am moving to fast or what but I will keep trying. Any...

any interesting channels on Kuband at 33 east and above on a 90 cm dish. Unfortunately the way my setup is anything below that (or any thing west) cannot be grabbed because it entails turning the dish all the way round and that faces directly into the wall on which it is mounted. I was happy to...

Let me know if you get the hook up. Would want one too

Hi guys, Newbie question. Just how important is the LNB skew to getting the desired channel? I am reading up and it tells me some sats need negative skewing and others need positive skewing. How would I know whic direction to turn eg from 89 to -89? There are those calibrations in the part that...

Thats cool. My 90cm ought to do just fine then. Thanks for the update. Now I just have to figure out which direction to point. That far down (5 degrees) might be tricky. So just how far left or right of Eutelsat 36A/B would I have to swing?

And now I read this! Having spent the whole day trying to track Zuku for noob practice and failing miserably. I was beginning to think my cheap Chinese HD receiver was being useless after only one month. Anyway I ended up bumping into Some Ghanian stuff (must have been 28.2 E) a bit of 68.5...

I noticed that too. For example I see Press TV and Dubai Sports 3 but I cannot get it. The others I cannot get are the christian ones like JCTV but I am not interested. Any idea how one can get these?

Thanks for the clarification

On 12275 H it seems K24 was replaced by MBC2 (mauritius) it seems. Cannot find silverbird anywhere
