Thanks bro, replaced the diseque with a better brand and the improvement was remarkable. Solution for screen shots worked too. My next project is to increase my BBC Percia signal quality from 61% to about 70%. ASAS symptoms still very high!

What befell the famous analogue receiver ALFAGOLD; didn't they switch to digital? Remember the days of MBC2 where every one was looking for it in order to nab the analogue signal? indeed much has changed in FTA.
Good Morning Solom,
Thanks for the update.
Seems the channels you discovered are on Yamal 402 satellite, Southern Beam footprint covering part of Africa
Yamal 402 satellite is located @ [SIZE=+1]@ 54.9° East, [/SIZE]between Yahsat 1A and NSS 12.
The channels on frequency 11045 V DVB-S SR 40000 are from South Africa.
9 Tv channels ( 3 encrypted 6 fta) and 1 Radio channel
Snap shot of some of the channels>>>
and Boxing
Also above Yahsat 1A we have Chinasat 5D (ZX-5D, Apstar 1A) @ 52°E C-Band footprint covering part of Africa.
Will blind-scan Chinesat 5D to see if they are any hidden channels there.

That's great Freddygas. on my 6ft pf, i get a max of 67%, 68% on bbc persia with samson twin. 130cm offset gave me a much less signal and i concentrated on improving the 6ft which improved from 60% to where it is now. Iam curious and i feel encouraged by your results to get back probably on the 130cm offset. what's your dish size and lnb type? Iam in Machakos which is not very far from your location and with similar tools as yours, i believe can get such strength. The only time to give up is after nabbing all the nailable sats. Big up man.My BBC Persia clicks btwn 77% & 78% on a gud day.....it all went to major shake down of the reflector and adjusting the LNB holding arms to get the right foal length and beam width hitting the LNB... 🙂
Freddygaz, kindly share photos of your "major shake down of the reflector" and other adjustments; the LNB you are using; dish size; etc. What is your quality level for the TP 11617V30000? It is the weakest on that Sat.My BBC Persia clicks btwn 77% & 78% on a gud day.....it all went to major shake down of the reflector and adjusting the LNB holding arms to get the right foal length and beam width hitting the LNB... 🙂

QIMEU, That's great achievement. Around two weeks ago, I had installed a Samson Twin to a brand new 6ft Eurostar prime focus and got around 68-70% quality for BBC persia. I decided to experiment with a Stargold-Fuji LNB for prime focus. I was amazed to find an improvement of around 10% in all the TPs! with the BBC persia hitting 79%. The only TP that hasn't come up yet is the 11617V30000 (Nat Geo, History, etc) which is the weakest. All the other TPs are stable hitting quality of 60% and above on a clear day. Ensure no trees are in the way of the dish too.
The StargoldFuji (one with a long neck) costs around Sh.1600 (USD20). My conclusion is that the StargoldFuji works best with brand new dish. I tried it with a slightly dented 6ft Eurostar and it was outperformed by the Samson Twin on both 7E and 7W.
I am in Nampula the third largest city in Mozambique
Had played down with the reflector and the arm supports from the convectional manufacturers default to get a good beam width illumination of the LNB thus increasing the signal strength by around 4% making it viewable on the weak transponders....

Abu dhabi sports PPV HD now is fta! 12092V27500
its always
AD Sports 1, 2 and Extra were only fta. AD PPV was scrambled
This gives hope. You in Nampula Mozambique at latitude 15.7 south are further from the middle east than me in Lusaka at 15.4 South. If you you are enjoying nilesat there with a 2.4m I should be able to lock on it too with a similar Dish!
