Just tweaked my dish at Amos5 and voala!! Citezen tv, bbc, aljazeera, CCTV, NHK, VOA plus T channels. Signal quality 70!!! FTA for life.

Pls shed some light on transmission mode.Is it mpeg-2 or mpeg-4? What size of dish are you using? is it KU or C- Band?

Do these movies have unedited f, m, b and w words? Probably they are
straight from 50bob stands. Even KTN cannot afford recent movies, the
best they can do is Broken Arrow, Enemy of the state, Independence day and US Marshalls. NTV on the other hand
records movies from South Africas eTV. Citizen TV is even worse it still airs 1970s and 80s
Hong Kong action movies in the 21st century. If the 3 major broadcasters cannot afford such
recent content then someone tell Aviation TV, they will soon face a big and messy
lawsuit from hollywood. Where is CCK while this is happening, another culprit is Youth TV. With the digital signal making transmission easier, I bet these TV stations are being run from a bedroom somewhere in Eastlands

Same reason Panorama Action was pulled off 7W. Allegded piracy.

I might be wrong, but it seems the Digiturk goodies on Eutelsat 7A have gone scrambled ($$$$).
Does anyone know of any new software for SRT 4922 / 4950 to bring them back?

 

[techdee]

Somewhere in this very forum cannot remember where a member talked of an old model decoder technosat or technomate which one can use to search for satellites without a meter please assist

Hello wakariru, how is LA.
The decoder in question is a Technosat T-888 decoder. Check this article on how to use a Technosat T-888 PLUS ULTRA decoder as a satellite finder.

These decoders are there, its just that they are MPEG 2/ dvbs instead of what we are used to, you know HD, PVR Mpeg 4 with internet connectivity; Smart decoders😉. Drop in at digital life and make them sell it to you at Ksh1500 and below, do not tolerate anything above 2K

get an astrovox 290, it has an inbuilt beeper which screams when you lock on a tp

Hi lapsam,
Probably the senior members can assist you with this. For me am I have three dishes, two 90cm where one is locked at Amos 5 and the other hotbird. The other dish is 1.8m locked on nilesat.
