Dear family, I was over the weekend setting up my 90cm dish and have some issues;

1. I wanted to track Yahsat 1A but it's not listed among the other satellites on my Strong SRT 4922. So the question is, can I track it and/or how can I add it to the satellite list?
2. Before dakness engulfed the city, I had only managed to receive Family 1 TV that couldn't show anything. It indicated "Bad or No Signal". What can I do for the TP that it's in it to hit green?

Any contribution will highly be appreciated. Thank you all.

yahsat 1A on srt 4922.... try 53E.

family 1...from experience i noticed probably you need to be on a different satellite as there are tps which hit green but still give you bad signal.try lyngsat.. though im no expert

The Ksh1800 to 2000 for inverto lnb is quite high. The same shop gave me a Ksh1200 a few months ago. I am certain that you will get it for an amount below 1300 bob if you are willing to search for it. I think riwira shop has been praised so much in this forum such that they have increased prices. At one time they tried to sell me a 65cm dish for Ksh1500 without LNB, I bought the exact same brand of dish dish a few steps away at the shop next to Kisii Electronics for Ksh1200. Recently when I wanted to buy the Stargold LNB riwira gave me Ksh4OO qoute even after bargaining the best they could do is unleash another poorly made KSh300 LNB. I bought the exact same LNB 5 steps away opp riwira for 350 bob. I know us ASAS enthusiasts usually have some spare cash to fulfill our needs, but I will not be hustled.

Was able to track Yahsat 1a over the weekend getting 68% on Fox movies and FOX series. Dubai One HD and RT HD 64%. Dish 90cm with starlife single lnb. Tracking TP 12168 H 27500 hosting fox movies.

Location is western Kenya. This sat was quite hard to grasp at first but i realized you need to tilt your azimuth a little bit to the right even if you are on NSS12 as you move up a little bit up. ( up or down depends on where you are in terms of the equator).

You can plug your SRT 4922 to internet then go to

System Settings..........
Database reset ..........input password 0000
Press lyngsat update and it will update your satellite list plus transponders.

Happy hunting

2 track yahsat-1a@ 52.5e first track k24 on nss 12@ 57e 11544 v 3300 or 11007 v 4883 get a maxmum signal on ds tp then as u stand behind ur dish input 12168 v 27500 yahsat tp then move ur dish a little up then 2 ur left .

Any one on ses 5 zuku postion 2 confirm if Starsat of south africa is open .

 

[wakariru]

Try the inverto black ultra or Eurostar Quad QP4, when fine tweaked they might stabilise the signal on a well mounted 90cm dish. My opinion is you will have to buy the 130cm eventually.

thanks alot mr techdee i will look for one of these lnbs and hook it,meanwhile i was trying to shop around for those plastic ku lnb brackets,any idea where i can get them i want to add one more lnb and see how my srt 4950h will behave

From my experience you need XTRAWIEW but its very expensive

If its for an offset dish then bad luck its usually sold together with
the dish as a whole. If its for adding other LNBs to an already existing setup then you will have to be innovative and craft one like some of the members.

 

[techdee]

Is it just me or is the famous banner on Mbc Channels becoming higher? I mean its now almost covering half the screen!
