African Satellite World and Sat Gear

Been following the posts of comrades here and realized our insatiable thirst for bigger dishes is just incredible. Like Ilish had put it most ASAS patients in other parts of the world are building their own BUD dishes. I am a member of different forums and i can say the pakistanis are way ahead from the snap shots below got from Satellite Guide with Indian Television Media News and Updates.

Hope the appetite for BUDS is magnified. Wasee this designs can be achieved ama?



Food for thought:bange:
 
This is amazingly beautiful BUD!!!
 

Wonderful work, it is possible here we have the brains and the ASAS population is ever increasing so there is demand.
 

This is incredible,
it just activated my ASAS.
 
Soita you're pushing me I goes i will push you with a VBBD (very big beautiful dish)
 
Just realized that 4950M has a blind search which is on the antenna settings, start search though there is no option of detailed search and fast search like the 4922
 
Hi all. I read somewhere in the forum that one can use some model of STRONG receiver as a sat finder, but cannot locate the same page on searching. Request-would any of the gurus in the house remind me of the model and possibly its price?


That must be the SRT-4950M. it has a led on a cable. It changes colour as an indicator when you lock onto the signal. Price is a bit debatable. I think it is 6k in nairobery and 3.5k in Mombasa. Somebody that has actually bought it shuld chime in.
 


Lucky sod. it is a shame you lost it the way you did. I will try that tact at my local posta:wink2:

Thanks emboko and HIGHLAND PATRON for this. I will go for the 4950M soon. But while still on matters sat-finding, there are claims on another site (I will locate the URL) that some android powered smartphones currently in the market have sat finder apps. In the post, it was indicated that all you got to do is to point the phone anywhere in the sky and it would show you all the birds in that direction right on the screen. Anybody encountered this sort of gadget?

 


This is definitely doable! :A S 39:Now, just to get the pattern. Although i still think someone should talk to the Numerical Machining Complex,:A S 101:even if it is just for the bars.
 

The app is from Satellite Finder / Dish Alignment Calculator with Google Maps | DishPointer.com. I have no smart phone or ipad/iphone, so i have never used it. But i input my data on the said site on the pc :typing: and it does the math. It does not point me anywhere. The pc is dumb:laugh:.
