buy a dish atleast of 90 cms & any good brand fta receiver will do. for hunting satellites u can refer to http://www.lyngsat.com orwww.flysat.com refer the map @ foot prints of satellites.

I would suggest at least 4 ft solid dish,if you can"tget 6 ft with no major difference.preferably quality of receiver should be good.

 

[Moradabad]

but I dont think in north east u will get 120 cm dish specially offset one

 

[srei]

Primarily, you need a solid dish,offset or traditional is secondary matter.
I have 4 ft.solid dish for last 14 years,still in service,requires little maintenance.

Hi Moradabad

i am looking for a FTA receiver which i can use just for tuning and aligning my dish to catch signals, please recommend a brand which is available locally, ideally i like the dish TV stb as it gave beeps which increased when signal quality increased, but unfortunately with the new firmware that does not work, there are few Chinese models available in the market that cost around 550 - 750

 

[Moradabad]

Take DishTV receiver and load the old firmware they will charge 300 rs for that and enjoy....

 

[Dushie]

any inputs from where i can get the old receiver and firmware, as i am unable to find it locally here in Bangalore, most of the people selling their receivers have it updated with latest firmware, i went to the local market was unable to find the old firmware to flash on the box, the hunt continues, if anyone has any inputs they are welcome

 

[Moradabad]

Dont worry friends soon I will load the firmware

Hi Moradabad, do you have the old firmware of dish tv stb ?

 

[ajayvats]

I would suggest at least 4 ft solid dish,if you can"tget 6 ft with no major difference.preferably quality of receiver should be good.

Has any one used 180cm UNIVERSAL BRAND SOLID DISH (prime focus, 6 panel)?

i want to know the build quality / performance / results.

secondly....

can someone help by putting up a list of all the satellites ( C/KU ) that can be recd in northern India using a 180cms solid dish.

Yamal
express

are these all that can be recd on 180 cms dish C-band ?

If i use 8' dish, then can any more satellites be recd. ?

 

[Moradabad]

Yes 8 feet is always best.

Much Strong & much reliable ... That will last many many years.

As far as solid is concerned if that is waste one it may get broken in WIND withing a year.

Example is all cable MSO use MESH big dishes as they need constant signal
