The channels on 7E are actually MBC1 and MC2,MBC3 is not FTA but MBC2 joins it most of the time hence many regards MBC2 as MBC3.
 
any help how can I nail kenyamux on 10e,I'm having 6ft but it's vain.
 
Hi forum members? My ASAS is deteriorating and has become chronic. The year has not even healed its navel and i wonder how my condition will be when the year will be winding up. Iam on a hunting mission for a 165cm offset dish. pls make my syndrome bearable by helping me on how and where i can get one. Oh poor me. When i think a'm there, it dawns to me that there lies several miles away. No turning back. Its better this way. My problem, 165cm offset, Target, National geographic and family at 7e. pls help me bring this bird wholesomely to my sitting room, i.e everything in it including the gizzard and the feathers.

You mean MBC2 sometimes changes to MBC3 on the same TP? This channel switching between a main channel and a guest channel I can understand, but what I dont understand is why the guest channel has now become the main channel. Its like people saying go to the BBC TP on the Kenyan mux just because KTN sometimes turns to BBC. Its confusing.
 
Hi frends, am quite new here...i have SRT 4950H currently nailed on nilesat. There good channels like national geographic, fox sports, discovery science and many more but they are scrambled . can any help me on how to unlock the scrambled channels please
 
any help how can I nail kenyamux on 10e,I'm having 6ft but it's vain.

same problem here, the tp shows some signal from 4pm but cant lock on it. am using supermax 777 lnb and 6ft too. Any help is greatly appreciated
 
Qtv is on Ew8 and not nilesat 😡

Am sorry to dis-agree with you my bro, QTV is very active on Nilesat TP 11512 V 27500, I am GETTING IT WITH SIGNAL QUALITY OF 60% here in Kampala. I could post for you picture evidence of a screen shot but i am unable to get screen shots currently. i also need help with that.
 
can someone point me to the right place where a project of converting 10ft mesh dish into solid was discussed? i think it is through foiling it

That process is explained in Nairaland forum(i think), ( All About Nilesat Installations - Satellite TV Technology (2) - Nairaland ) copy and paste that in your url and see how George did it with picture guide. but what i remember is that you take the dish down, foil it with aluminum foil from bakery shops. you will also need glue to pile layers of foil. then you can use white paint to finish it off. Good-luck
 
@ dejumbo thanks
i will do the needful. What is the price of samson in kla?

gddams, pliz, pliz, pliz, if you find out the answer to that and the place, pliz let me know, i also need one urgently.
 

Hi Rawlongo, Welcome to the forum, First congs on locking in on Nilesat, but you will not be able to unscramble channels on nilesat but you stand a chance of watching those channels on Eutelsat 7A at 7 degrees east Europe b footprint. All you need is to patch your strong receiver with the latest firmware and point your dish at 7 degrees east. below are the channels you can get;-
10803 V 29900 BBC Knowledge E2 Fog TV Irmak TV Kral TV Meltem TV MNG Shop TV Sports TV

I must tell you that it's not easy to lock on that foot print but with the right equipment and determination it is very possible. Good-luck bro.:wink2:
 
QTV still there,am getting it at 58% quality using a90 cm dish and a single eurostar lnb.
 
Oh yes the pole is slightly bending to the west, so therefore i should take it off the wall again!? oops!

There you go!!!!, now to even asure you more that you will get the MBC channels. This ASAS syndrome made me combine Nilesat 7W (top most), plus Digiturk 7E (Centre of dish) and Amos 5 (below 7E) Lnbs on one 130 cm dish, this reduced my Nilesat signal by about 10% putting my Dubai one on 67% quality. but i am getting the mbcs at 71% quality, meaning you are getting the weak signal at 63%, therefore your MBC should be at around 70%. fox movies will even be better at around 74% for you. pliz work on your pole, also try QTV TP 11512 V 27500(currntly enjoying coll movies on that channel. let me know the outcome. good-luck
 
FTA-Nash, Kungu and other Gurus in the house, pliz help me out,
1. my 4way diseqc switch won't accept more than 2 lnb connections without loosing signal on the third or 2 lnbs no matter the combinations, so i am now connecting only 2 lnbs on it. is there a solution for this? it is a Eurostar 4wy diseqc switch.

2. my Strong srt 4922 receiver is patched with (SRT4920_132p_130904.stb) but i am unable to take SCREEN-SHOTS to share with fellow members here. when i press the screen shot button on the remote, i get a users manual menu. How even with USB inserted. how can i do this? any help will be highly appreciated.
