There I see the problem. MTN at 68.5e is linear signal it doesn't need the dielectric plate.Sir Ras Kush I've done exactly that but M&TN is still playing hard to get wonder what could be the other trick an not aware of
I was trying the one at 57e. Mtn ww package where S24 is. The strange thing is when I did a blind scan I could find the BFBS package but the TP frequency it was coming on was around 12,000 strange because I suspect that is a ku band range frequency and I was using a c band lnb. The freq for bfbs as per lyngsat is just 3900.There I see the problem. MTN at 68.5e is linear signal it doesn't need the dielectric plate.

Ok the DE plate is actually vertically placed only how I took the picture making it appear slanted. I'll correct the connector position. I had also tried the 12 o'clock position. maybe the lnb model is the problem. Thought s24 bieng on the global beam which is strong here in e.africa didn't require a special lnb model. Turns out I was wrong. Don't know if I can find supermax but I have another Pauxis I'll try with over the weekend. Thanks for your advicefreq, Your set up has very notable errors:
1. EuroStar ESCD- 600Gold long neck has never been reported to lock on the stubborn frequency of Spxxxs 24HD. Even if it did lock, chances are maybe during its formative years. Incase of a long neck LNB, you will have to push the original di-electric plate [app. 40mm] all the way further inside. Recommended LNB was SuperMax vh777 short-neck 17K. It is worth noting that Eurostar ES21 and SuperMax vh111/ vh777 all share the same LNB skew.
2. Your di-electric plate is positioned in a North West-South East direction, recommended was North-South direction. The plate you slice MUST be square and the edges smoothed out.
3. Your LNB F-Connector is @ 6 O'clock; recommended should be @ 12 O'clock mark.
Take time to study earlier posts by forumists on this thread notably Giden, Vicwa & Kibukila who have selflessly tackled the Eastern Arc extensively.
I beg to differ, i have severally locked on m*tn tp with the 600. If you are still failing change the Teflon position slot. Also try both 3oclock and 6oclock skew positions. I already have people using it.

Use the Escdt 600 first. Single solution lnb may even compound your confusion.Ok the DE plate is actually vertically placed only how I took the picture making it appear slanted.

Thanks Giden. Actually I had the Pauxis dual band but I knew it would be more confusing for a c band fresher like me so I got the eurostar C-band Only for a start. Never knew hunting on c band is a whole different world than ku. But the more you live the more you learn. I also suspect the LNB frequency setting in the decoder has been set wrongly. I was using 5150/5750 is this proper?Use the Escdt 600 first. Single solution lnb may even compound your confusion.
Actually the last setup on 600 I locked as parasite with a Q55% very stable.
5150 is usually the correct one, but 5150/5750 also works because the stb checks both symbol rates to identify which one is working. As regards the plate me I usually put it vertically in between the two antennas. For skew it differs with lnb for the same sat. I know roughly where 68.5e is, so when the SaT finder makes maximum noise I set lnb first 2 o'clock then 5 o'clock to see where green is then I adjust to maximise. I have gotten MTN with 4 different lnbs.Thanks Giden.

Actually thats the wrong lnb frequency, use 5150 only. 600 is not a single solution lnbThanks Giden.

Yep.. specs on the box also indicate 5150.. with this ton of knowledge I've got from the house I should now be able to move a step aheadActually thats the wrong lnb frequency, use 5150 only. 600 is not a single solution lnb
YesSp*rt 24 went off again??
Since it delivered no update software they release.forgot sony$24 continue to enjoy HBO only.buy alphabox X6+ it open 24 and SonyWhoever know alphabox x6 please help how to edit keys, its not open Sony + michezo 24

Did this Chase Swahili Speakers from this thread? I rarely hear themAll of us depend on each other and if you guys try to convert this forum to a specific common language of swahili, we are not going far. Let's share in language (English).
Certainly not. Besides, this JF is Tanzanian. So it is wholly Swahili.Did this Chase Swahili Speakers from this thread? I rarely hear them
