Sorry for the dumb question, but your cband lnbs are off-centered, how do you move the dish accordingly to be able to get the sat you need for them?

Hi deepbluesky. A belated Happy New Year. I have used some online Italian to English translator so I could figure out what has been posted on that website. You must be multilingual if you can speak Italian besides Greek and German. Though not grammatically correct, I have understood. Below is the translation:


"Remaining West Intelsat 903 34.5 ° W improvements compared 3M can be seen especially sull'ostico transponder of Kenya 3895 L 8594 sr where you can have a "fairly" stable"

I am yet to come across anyone who has actually locked that frequency and is watching those African channels. I wonder why they are being beamed to that part of the globe in the first place?

Happy new year my friend, though 1 month too late, anyway. I am not at all multilingual just English, Greek and German. But had French in school long time ago, this helps me more or less to understand a bit of Italian and Spanish as well.

Well , the thread in the italian board is extremely long as you could see. I've just passed quickly the last pages and found at least the one report of bisui. Maybe there are also more but the problem still remains: Large dishes and quick guaranteed upstream speeds are needed to serve a stream on 24/7 basis.

I assume that some cable networks distribute these channels but where ? In Germany certainly none does.

Returning to pipino's installation i am quite amazed that a 1.50m is able to lock this frequency at all. Seems the signal is much stronger in (South)Western Europe.

deepbluesky, I agree with you. A 1.50M Dish appears to be a bit small for that frequency, what with such low levels of Elevation in and around that part of the globe?

 

[deepbluesky]

Low elevation ? For bisui it's >20°, for pipino >30°, so this is not relevant in their location. This is just an issue for Scandinavia and Eastern Europe.

next week if i get some free time i do some testing and i will post the results here,also i will test the POWERVU box i have here ,to see if we can get any softcrypted transmissions (divibi i didnt forget you ;) just need some spare time specialy when having a new born baby) ,last time i´v seen some signals on 34º west was back in septembre when i was in holiday the weather then was great ...cheers

mean while check this up----> _http://web2.dxsatcs.66.sk/php66/index.php?str=83

 

[kamaleon]

You mean a powervu box can open any powervu transmission? it doesn't need a card or something ok the like?

i once heard that sometimes you can get softcrypted POWERVU transmissions on feeds using a POWERVU decoder with no need of authorization key,but until now i never seen it ,i´m planing to do a proper test on all Powervu channels i can get here in spain ,then post all the findings

 

[hoppo1]

Why are you losing channel Five, you should get that all day easy?

if you are refering about the intelsat 27ºwest signal,it will be included in my tests ,once i did see some irish feeding there too

 

[kamaleon]

nice one m8, keep us informed of your findings then ;)

Wow! I like that Dish!!! What size is it? And what language is that? Is it Czech?

 

[deepbluesky]

It's the dish of the site owner Roman David in Eastern Slovakia. He's using a Prodelin 3.7m. More pictures here: _http://web.dxsatcs.66.sk/php66/index.php?str=7&spr=26

No channel 5 on Astra 28.2

since when??? i think is still running on Astra 2C but using a FTV card and can receive it 24/7 with a small dish in Levante area

 

[wod]

channel 5 is on astra 2d now as it has joined the freesat service, so if your dish is big enough you will receive it

 

[kamaleon]

I very marginally received channel 5 (and all the rest of freesat) in lisbon with a 60cm dish.

channel 5 is on astra 2d now as it has joined the freesat service, so if your dish is big enough you will receive it

we know that but there is also an encrypted version on Astra 2C and a smart card FTV is needed for that ..that will work at least until April2009

pipino, are you receiving TV Channels and Radio Stations on the NE Zone Beam of Intelsat 903 at 34.5°W?

Here is the link: _http://www.lyngsat.com/intel903.html

hi again ,i´v just been scanning sats and here what i got tonight from 34.5ºW

RTI (Radio Television Ivoirienne) from ivory coast... perfect reception
and KNR TV from greenland shows DR1 on the picture ,this one is breaking up heavy ,in the other side no sign of Nigeria or Kenya ,i should be receiving a special waveguide from australia soon ,i will do some test with it and will report any improvements...regards

 

[guest poster]
