1.8 m C Band Dish on
PAS7_10 @ 68.5°E, 1.8 m Astra C Band Dish (for roaming) but now on Thaicom 2/5 @ 78.5, 90 cm (GTV) offset on Sirius 4; ALL FTA and Astravox VSR-400 Reciever, I Still have 2 analogue recievers...(4 what? noo one knows!!)
- My Location
- Africa, Uganda (Log. 32.8°E, Lat. 0.7° N)
Hi guyz & girls,
I started sat things watching analogue Arabsat which closed without warning about 2 years ago.
I read a comment where Analogue said that the footprints are usually in theory. That the reception actually extends beyond the stipulated view (which I understand is called fringe reception). After loosing Arabsat, I was left with nothing. My channels are now on Badr4 MBC foot print. But this foot print is quite far from my location (Lat. 0.6°N, Lon. 32°E). I am probably more than a thousand kilometers away. Also, I can’t read the EIRP power since am beyond the foot print.
Can I use my 1.8m prime focus, do the offsetting and fix a Ku band LNB to get this content? Advise me.
Bo Thx
