i like this man i would pay for this
While we are at it, is that earth station at Longonot still in use now that there is fiber? Man the size of those dishes. They should be renting the place to us asas for some fee then we get to experiment from there. Like a club or something on weekends.
Hi....av been trying to nab ktn frq on amos 5 but in vain....other frq like 12419 v 29998 in that site are hitting a signal quality of 81%. What i going wrong.....even blind scanning is not helping. My location is voi am using srt 4922 hd and zuku dish.
Hi Kungu, is the 4950H tuner more sensitive than 4922
Kungu1, Great work. Please indicate the dish size and LNB you are using with the SRT4950H. Thank You.
He heheheee... :hail: You are da man! :bange:coming weekend is "on the roof" day:flame::msela:I will swing my canon that direction :target: and see what gives. Will report here.
As for the signal itself, the map says i am at 37dBW. I also am at 36dBW on intelsat 906@64.2E and was receiving that famous Tz mux very well. i am almost sure i will receive the Cross. My C-Band setup is as follows: 180cm prime focus solid with a Supermax(over ten years old now) VH-777 super lnb with a teflon disc in the throat. It is currently on Arabsat 5C. Failing that, i will swallow hard and remove the teflon and try again! Failing that, i will go for plan B. What is plan B?:confused2:
Good Evening Eliyakim,
You would require a 1.2 meter offset dish, as frequency 11761 V DVB-S2 SR 15000 hosting KTN (Kenya), RTI 1, Canal international and RTB TV is on AMOS 5, West Central footprint which has less coverage in Kenya.
As per Satbeams, Amos 5 West Central beam does not cover Kenya
While on SatStar, the beam covers the lower southern part of Kenya where a 1.2 meter offset dish would be required.
Happy Hunting :couch2:>>>
Good Evening,
Just a few pointers,
Make sure your dish is elevated from the ground for best optimal tracking of Measat 3 Sat.
I have placed my 2.4 meter prime focus dish on top of the roof.
Interestingly i have dropped that dish 4 times from the top of the roof and its still in good working condition
Use frequency 3625 H DVB-S SR 4320 on Measat 3 Measat 3/3a at 91.5°E - LyngSat
Let your start point be Thaicom 5.
To Get the DVB-S2 8psk modulation, you might require a 2.4 meter prime focus dish.
As per Satbeams, 2.4 Meter Prime focus needed in Kenya to get most of the frequencies on both Meast3/3A...
Food for thought: Every post office building in Kenya has at least two perfectly sized offset dishes,doing absolutely zilch! :ear:
Received the 4950M today and I loaded with the latest firmware and channels on 7E European beam showing, kaboom

Why did KTN choose this satellite then? It makes no sense at all! What is their target audience? Chinedu and clan?
They were part of the Anglo leasing deals so getting hold of them is a long shot.
Hallo kungu where can i buy srt4922hd ? Its roughly how much? How can i verify its genuine? With my 90cm dish(currently on ds) can i get the movies package
I need some opinions on the star track 130 cm offset. Is it better than the eurostar?
Someone is offering without the mounting bracket and I was thinking of fabricating
the bracket.
Both work well but if you can get the 130cm offset eurostar inclusive of the mounting bracket at a fair price, then go for the eurostar.
Please also make sure the side bars of the Star Track 130cm offset are of the same size.
The Last time i was at Luthuri Avnue, the 130cm offset dishes were being sold @ between 5,500/= and 6000/=
Happy Hunting
