For guys who are using these fancy sat-meters how do you know when you are getting warmer or colder when fiddling with your dish?
I tried using one today and my initial impression was that it was an overpriced outdoor monitor. I had to call on my tiny buzzo-meter to nab nilesat.
for the price they cost one could almost imagine it could be sent to the roof on its own with instructions
Hello family,
Is there any interesting bird from overhead to the Eastern horizon in Nairobi since I don't have view towards the west because there is adjacent to our single storey house a multi-storey building blocking the entire west, so I can only try east.
I am currently locked onto Intelsat 20/Eutelsat 70B (90cm Eurostar offset + Inverto Ultra Black) though local channels are all red on my side.
Any help will highly be appreciated.
Thanks.
You are almost there. Move if slightly upward, not more than 5mm
The best way is to have it on top of 5.0 east. That way you nail two birds on one dish. I did it like that on 80cm. See below.

what do you have on Astra 4a. euro beam? what else is interesting on ses5 & Astra
There are some etv feeds on astra 4a (sub-sahara beam) that occasionally show champions league matches. Then on ses 5 is the mighty DW, france 24, RT english, NHK, cctv eng etc.
Hello Pitawin, still on Amos 5?
Yahsat 1a @ 52 east is a good choice. It carries dubai1 HD, AD sports 1&2 HD, the MBCs etc. You need 80cm plus to get a good signal on mena transponders.
Giden you can get it though weaker tps you can't, I have tried once but I got bored because some channels are there on nilesatI doubt a 90cm can get him Yahsat maybe a 130cm and above
OK. Thanks. I hear if you manage the euro beam, there's nice stuff under power v. but I suppose you require a bigger dish
Apstar 7 at 76.5 e another good choice for series, kids stuff, documentaries and scifi stuff. Need 180 pf. dish.Hello family,

Hi Munyaga,Thanks cygnusascension, I had tried to lock on it but in essence got Yamal I think 402 whereby among the less than 10 channels I got was Sports Hub, I got disappointed and swung it back to IS20.
I have an Inverto Black Ultra as the main (locked onto IS20) plus 2 Starlifes above as FTA Nash had once combined and posted an image but I didn't succeed.
Kindly detail me on how to add particulars for a new satellite or how to enter a new TP coz my SRT 4922 doesn't have Yahsat among its satellite list and I will be glad.
Thanks.

Dont even think about it, that euro beam is out of completely reach
