African Satellite World and Sat Gear

African Satellite World and Sat Gear

Just a reminder for world cup lovers. As far as I remember, SABC south Africa won the rights to show for free world cup matches, as of yesterday, they were FTA on Intelsat 20. Its my belief they are in preps for worldcup.

I saw you ask about the huge offset. Well I dismounted it and took it to a welder for fixing last week. It needs a new stand to make it light. Then next will be paint and an lnb holder, which I have no idea how to go about

This is what I am using as my reference guide but I do not know where Kungul 2 disappeared to. He could really be handy in this scenario. I need to know how he fabricated his lnb holder and what lnb this is. For the stand I am sorted, the welding guy is a bit knowledgeable. But for the lnb holder I am a bit skeptical least he ruins the whole thing.

For sure Kamathig, though my setup might have an issue somewhere but the rest of 5E/7E as I earlier stated are checking in.
Munyaga if u can lock Africa unite, there is no reason why u can't lock in NASA. A 90cm offset is sufficient, signal quality @60% is stable during clear skies.

Your lnb should be at the exact point the original block up convertor and down convertor were (what you were calling a transponder) infact you shouldn't have removed the arm that was holding it. You should have just found a way of fixing an ordinary lnbf on to the existing arm after removing the 'transponder'

What!!! I did not know about that but no issue...we have not damaged it. Only two screws missing. We can try work on it at the workshop on sunday. What LNBF would you recommend?
