Can u give the lnb and your screw of the lnb becoz I tried to get channels but in vain

Super max VH-777, screw between @ 10:00 & 11:00 o'clock. You might be beyond the horizon thou, mostly you can't nab satellites(from where you are) beyond 75 degrees on both sides i.e east & west.

Intelsat 20 68.5 or Apstar 7 which one should I prioritize

68.5

I

68.5

I Also thought so. Well balanced. Movies, news documentaries, reality TV, Gospel.

What happened to the Disney channel on Apstar 7, I can get them?

Upgrade to a larger dish.

The one time I experienced this, it turned out the dish elevation was the issue. There's an almoat 1cm elevation difference. Try it.

True, still on with 8ft pf loud and clear.

Not so, I think Ranksat has it on 90cm, heading to the roof soon will update the house.

There was a time you could get Yahsat 52.5 On a 90cm in Nairobi?

I think 6 ft should do in kiambu. But someone from Nairobi can confirm, since kiambu is basically Nairobi

With six foot in Nairobi you better be armed with an extra sensitive lnb. And not supermax 777. At least not the one in the market now. I tried could only get arirang tv. 8ft with Eurostar will give you all the xonnys hbo and dscries though discry still cracks at Strength 83%

Ha! 6ft is becoming more and more useless as these guys reduce the signal strength. I tried nabbing 57e using 6ft, all I could get with Eurostar lnb was the BFS package n telechad. Got advice to buy supermax 777 which performed even worse. Decided to get 8ft. Aint sure about performance of 6ft on apstar 7 but yesterday I was advised here that it only downloads a few TPs. Hope they are the required TPs
