Hi Giden. For how much are you selling the Pauxis px2000 lnb? ASAS price that is. (sorry I could not do the math from those dollar amounts, shipping , taxes et. al you may have alluded to in Let Love Reign's quote)Its good to test new grounds, try and report improvement,but for the same i would have given you two Pauxis px2000 lnbs and shipping. I use the Px2000 and have stable DHD at Q72 through the day and Q69 at night on Freesat V7 combo. Only drops around midnight to Q66 then rises around 30mins later.
In satellite world no Lnb can compensate for an increase in dish size.
If you increase the size of a dish from 6ft to 8ft , signal improves by around 50%.
Sory if I may have jumped on your train. The only explanation I find to be valid in such experience is that in your V7 Combo you have set your Lnb frequency in Universal setting, this is the KU format not the CBand frequency format, thus giving you the KU freq format which is 9750/10600 or the other with /10700 or 10750 instead of the usual Cband format.Just Checking. Why do we have such a large variation in the tp frequencies that a freesat v7 combo throws up on a blind scan compared to what is conventionally known on flysat, lyngsat etc? Case in point, on IS20 the S*n* S*x tp comes out as 3902 V 22222 on an SRT 4922 box (pretty close to the indicated 3900 V 22222 from flysat) , but the combo one indicates 10998 V 22221 (which looks like it should be a ku-band tp!)
I would not have minded much about this were it not for the snag in getting the S*y News tp (4197 v 4000) to dance. Surprisingly, a casual scan on the 4922 delivers it smoothly with key I fed in a long time ago, yet the combo with the latest patch fails. I tried to manually edit the tp in the combo, but it failed to accept it claiming "out of range".
Assistance rendered on this would be greatly appreciated house.
yes [emoji817]% stable.Will update the house once i get my hands on it and thanks for the offer. It might come handy someday.
You are right about it brother. If it was just about an lnb alone, there wouldn't be 4 ft, 6 ft 8 ft 12 ft etc.
Actually for me that is kinder of a longshot as i got plans to upgrade to 8ft from 6ft.
But like I said, before shelving out that much for another dish, i might get "the best" as they say in those ends and try it on my current setup.
If that works better and my desired channels dances 24/7 then I might call it off for an 8ft dish.
Now you got me interested, you mean those scovery channels are on 24/7 with a six feet dish?
Take 3 and send me one[emoji1] that Vsat lnb alone costs more than 20k new, now its useless.That LNBF looks so rusty hadi maji imeingia ndani. Hope it will still be useful but I will carry it with me. Thanks though. I am now set to find how I can get an exact same dish from the Kakamega Post Office as five more still lie on the roof unused.
make Satbeams.com and satstar.net your friend for elevation,skew and footprint details. using your location you get your exact details.Anyone in the house using prime focus 6 ft with yahsat 52.5 as primary lnb to post a picture and elevation of the dish
For such we use brake fluid. It is better off than grease as it easily penetrates the rust due to it being highly viscous. Thanks for the heads up though. I appreciate. Viva!!Some bit of advice as you bring it apart...if my experience this weekend is anything to go by; Please first grease all the rusty nuts and bolts before you loosen them. I had a rusted bolt (on the feedhorn of a Eurostar cband dish) first refuse to come out using a ring spanner... and thinking more force was required, I brought in my dewalt cordless wrench to finish the job. Lo and behold, the damn thing snapped leaving a portion inside the hole which I have yet to figure out how to remove. Apply a bit of grease on the others easily nudged them off.
Bro, what is WD40? I would really love to encounter it. Though I am used to brake fluid[emoji4][emoji4]Grease is too 'messy'. Use WD40. Available in supermarkets.
Let me approach and try convince the Post office management if they will allow me carry away the dishes. Then we can do business bro.Take 3 and send me one[emoji1] that Vsat lnb alone costs more than 20k new, now its useless.
Oh! Thank you for your observation brother on the screw driver! I never thought about that! I hope my screw driver toolset will have one of the piece drive that thing.
Will update the house!View attachment 770696
You can even use Salad. Ama mafuta ya aloveraFor such we use brake fluid. It is better off than grease as it easily penetrates the rust due to it being highly viscous. Thanks for the heads up though. I appreciate. Viva!!
How do you know elevation of prime focus dishjust track 57e, raise your dish 1 to 2 inch and you will be home. use frequency 11977 to track
Oh dear! Thank you for the brush mate! Gues I have to go check at the hardware or mal. Much appreciated.I am sorry but your set of screw drivers won't work. An Allen key set looks like this....View attachment 771067
Noted!Eat before it last @ 75°e ku
Just use experience and common sense. For starters, when the dish is pointing straight up in the Sky while in Nairobi (or Nyeri), it is pointing at about 37 deg East. when you move it towards Mombasa, it increases by about 4 degrees per inch moved on the elevation support.How do you know elevation of prime focus dish

Nothing special mate just some FTA channels bundled by T*NG. at least for me.
