Hi Ijumuso and the entire house. the answer for 160e is NO. kenya is approximately 36e. from this point, the eastern Horizon is 90 degrees to the east of 36e. This brings us to 126e(36+90). Hence, the eastern horizon is roughly on 126e. Depending on your location and topography, it is likely possible to nail sats up to and around 126e. Beyold this point, its possibly impossible in respect to kenya. Remember this will also depend on the foot print.

Guys. why not simplify the explanation for the lay people.
Simply say the earth is like a globe and if you are in Kenya (36°E),
any satellite further east or west (e.g. 160°E or 60°W) will be beyond your horizon
and therefore cannot be seen by the dish.
Just imagine a small ant on a big ball.
It cannot see what is on the other side of the ball, no matter how good its sight.

In light of the FTA push to Satellite.. here is the Middle East FTA reach...

Over nine out of 10 housheholds in 15 countries across the Middle East and North Africa now take satellite TV for pay TV and free-to-air services, up from two thirds four years ago, according to satellite operator Eutelsat’s latest survey.

Out of a population base of 77.1 million TV homes, 92% of TV homes take satellite TV, up from 67% in 2010.
Over the same period, the number of homes receiving analogue terrestrial TV slumped from 18.2 million in 2010 to 4.1 million in 2013. IPTV now accounts for 700,000 homes, mostly in the Gulf states.
Free-to-air TV has increased its share, accounting for 94% of satellite households, up from 90% in 2010.
The number of homes equipped with an HD Ready or Full HD display has crossed a threshold of 20 million, accounting for 29% of TV homes in the region. Penetration of HD consumer equipment in Saudi Arabia, UAE and Jordan is above 50%. Of the 41.3 million homes not equipped for HDTV, 50% intend to buy an HD display within the next 12 months, according to the survey.
The audience of the combined Eutelsat-Nilesat video platform at 7° to 8° West has broken the barrier of 50 million homes in the Middle East and North Africa, according to Eutelsat.
The combined satellite neighbourhood now has an audience of 51.5 million homes, according to the company.
“Our new survey confirms the exceptional dynamics of the video market in the Middle East and North Africa and the key role played by satellites that now reach into more than nine out of ten homes in the region. This result reflects longstanding partnerships between Eutelsat, Gulfsat, Nilesat, Noorsat, Viewsat and anchor media groups, including Al Jazeera, MBC and OSN that are experiencing strong commercial success and are well placed for further expansion in the region,” said Eutelsat chairman and CEO Michel de Rosen.
“The survey also confirms the leadership of the Eutelsat-Nilesat 7/8 West neighbourhood whose audience of more than 50 million homes can receive an unequalled line-up of 1,050 Arabic and international channels. Going forward, we believe that the move to higher quality afforded by HD and, for the future, 4K will further consolidate satellite as a core infrastructure in the region.”

I tend to think these receivers are fake. I wanted to buy one recently but I noted the seals were tampered with yet the guy could not allow testing of the same. The machine also looks light; the website address on the RCU is wrong. Actually they look suspicious. I would advice that be cautious before buying.

Its true there some cheap imitations outs there,

I always deal with the official strong dealers Alfa sounds electronics,luthuli ave. They will sell you genuine receivers with valid serial numbers. SRT 4922 goes for 6500/=

From 36deg E the eastern horizon is even less than 126deg. The correct answer is where the tangential plane at 36deg cuts the clarks belt. Rem longitudes are measured from center of earth. This plus sources of thermal noise along a horizontal line of sight further reduce the recievable horizon. The lowest bird I've ever received was telstar 11n at 37.6w. Same rules apply to east.

My suspicions confirmed. I bought one 4922 Aug last year and had to return it next day. The thing could heat up like a barbecue, audio via HDMI was barely audible & it emitted so much RF noise you could not listen to FM radio within the house.
