seems the kenya mux at 60 e has finally docked at 57e. Another challenge has come! How do i fix another lnb between yahsat 1a and nss12 c band to get nss12 ku? If one can remember my 7 lnbs on 8ft setup, you can advice.

Are KBC1 and Kiss TV still showing at 60E.

Almost fried my srt4922 during update when a sudden power cut occurred. Thank God I had RS232 cable at hand; had to flash the memory with the new patch by the help of the strong loader from wizkid.

Sorry Flybird, but one should not be worried because strong receivers can easily be brought back to life incase of premature software loadings attributed by power blackout. Another option is by inserting the software into a usb drive. Press power button and channel up button simultaneously(srt 4922), and switch ON the rear power supply switch.The usb download option will pop up on your screen and you can now easily load back your patch. Remember to press channel up button several times while holding power button for usb download menu option to appear on your screen.

Dish size and your location matters first. If you can find any of the following lnbs they are good; samson twin, fuji, eurostar QP4 gold

Thanks, am looking at a 120 cm offset dish..location is Thika.

I believe you have to stick to the non-segmented prime focus dish. I have read in other forums in Europe where the experts say the non segmented PF dish would easily out perform the segmented one. If I were you I will go for the non segmented one and see how well it performs.I am very sure you wont regret this decision.

thanx v much.
much appreciated.pliz inbox link.
thanx.

Hi flybird, if that's so then there might be an issue with the settings that I am entering because mine is a Huawei E3131A. When I plug it into the decoder it's blinking blue, the 3G option appears and fields for filling the APN, username and password......

It may be APN issue. I hope phone number you have entered *99# for most networks,(old evdo telcom card it was *77#).
Success in your quest.

you require a bigger dish say like 130cm offset dish or 1.8m primefocus dish.
