African Satellite World and Sat Gear

What happened to the 7A tp (10928 H 30000) hosting BBC World News, CNN, AlJazeera, EuroNews? Seems to have been taken over by muvi package.:disapointed:

CONFIRMED and SURPRISED !!! So where are the BBC etc. that used to reside here on Eutelsat 7east (dg*t*k*)?
Anyone with any hints on why this was allowed to happen? This is signal jamming and I thought it was illegal.

Is the signal better than HD on nilesat ?

Citizen TV signal on Is20 improve by about 50% coz can now combine it with KTN on70e using 65cm

Pls,which type of lnb and Decoder are you using? My set up,citizen tv frequency on Intelsat 20, with eurostar lnb and Dvb-s Decoder gives 0-29% signal which shows nothing.Where am I wrong?

lower your dish until almost vertical position in elevation.

I would advice getting a sat finder it costs 1000. makes the process 10 times easier.

Satellite TV reception
equipment provider and pay TV operator Strong Media
SAL-Off-Shore (SMO) has taken additional satellite
capacity from Eutelsat on the Eutelsat 16A satellite to
launch a range of English, French and Arabic-speaking
television services over sub-Saharan Africa.
SMO plans to launch two new services – Ma TELE,
targeted at French-speaking countries, and Shashatee, a
new Arabic-language pay TV service, in April, joining
the established My TV service that has been resized and
rebranded as My TV Smart, also broadcast from Eutelsat
16A.
Ma TELE will initially target subscribers in Côte d’Ivoire
and the Democratic Republic of Congo with an offer of
close to 30 channels, including its own flagship Africa-
specific channels and AB Sat’s BIS Africa service. It will
also air a line-up of unencrypted free-to-air channels.
Strong owns operations for distribution, technical
support and after-sales service in a number of Sub-
Saharan Africa countries, which it will use to promote
and sell the TV services.
“We are excited to announce the launch of our new
services for Sub-Saharan Africa. We selected Eutelsat
16A for its solid video neighbourhood and significant
audience penetration in our target markets. We are more
than confident that our cooperation with Eutelsat will
bring the desired added value to the services we intend
to deploy over the region,” said Samer Mourad, chief
operating officer of SMO.
Michel Azibert, chief commercial and development officer
at Eutelsat, said: “Our 16° East neighbourhood is fast
ramping up to be a key point of reference for a diverse
range of African and international content. With Strong’s
skills at assembling compelling digital content and
ensuring viewers get access to affordable and quality
consumer equipment we are well placed for a new phase
of growth. We look forward to collaborating with Strong
on accelerating access to digital entertainment in
Africa.”

Hey pals where did dmtv on nilesat vanish to?

 

[SAT2]

Pls,which type of lnb and Decoder are you using? My set up,citizen tv frequency on Intelsat 20, with eurostar lnb and Dvb-s Decoder gives 0-29% signal which shows nothing.Where am I wrong?

Hi mbarikiwa2 whats ur location dish size

 

[Gich]

Strong Genuine

Vicwa, I had this in mind too but the list doesn't include 4950H. Although they indicate that the service will be extended to other models, they have not done so.

 

[Asanyo]

I get them loud and clear using 90cm and inverto black lnb. I think you need a satellite finder even a slight adjustment on the dish and I loose the signal especially CNN,BBC, ALJAZEERA,EURONEWS.

Starlord, i have a sat finder, i guess i should replace my Lnb with the inverto black one :mvutaji:. It must be the one leting me down!:thinking:

Vicwa, I had this in mind too but the list doesn't include 4950H. Although they indicate that the service will be extended to other models, they have not done so.

Okay. How can one be sure the 4950H decoders now available on luthuli-Riverroad shops are genuine? Best "genuine" shop to buy from at the moment?

Fellow ASAS sufferers,
This ASAS has turned me to a hunter and a gatherer. I have been hunting for a 130cm offset dish for the last few days as part of my Easter projects. In my hunting, I went to the WWW and bumped into this hugely helpful list (which I will christen ASAS DIRECTORY). It is just named "Installers", so I don't know whose installers these are. But hey, it is very helpful.
Besides getting what I wanted (130cm offset and a Inverto black lnb), there is this place I called where I was told they have a 150cm offset dish at ksh. 15,000. The lady on the other side initially did not know the size and had to enquire and text. Anyone here heard of this kind of a dish? She called it "solid" so I figured it had to be offset. I am tempted to go see it for the heck of it. But that price! A 130cm from the sources I have called costs an average of 5K.

Note: this is not an April fools joke: I am writing this past the allowed fooling timing of noon (Kenyan time)
