    Digiturk Reception Eutelsat 7A - Rain Fade

    I set the LNB similar to that of a minidish and it gave me a loss in signal of 2-3%. With very little/no skew, receiver shows 100%

    Digiturk Reception Eutelsat 7A - Rain Fade

    It shows 100% for all, but 100% 83% and 63% for signal strength for each tuner.

    Digiturk Reception Eutelsat 7A - Rain Fade

    Sorry where do I change this setting? Is that 28 clockwise? I asked my installer and he said it didn't need any skew!

    Digiturk Reception Eutelsat 7A - Rain Fade

    We had a choice of Man City and Man Utd on Saturday. I think sometimes they show 3. I have to use the Digiturk LNB, as it is a special one for distributing to a PVR using a single output. I have a 1.1 facing Turksat at the moment; it's my parents'. Is the 88 really not enough? I don't mind it...

    Digiturk Reception Eutelsat 7A - Rain Fade

    It was pretty heavy, but it had to lighten for it to come back. I think it was the rain a week or so ago. Hasn't really rained since. I am just cautious as the footprint for Eutelsat 7A on the Europe B says 46db... Its happened twice so far. Once a few weeks back and once last week - both were...

    Digiturk Reception Eutelsat 7A - Rain Fade

    My installer said his meter gave a reading of 98%, but that could have been from the Europe A beam, not Europe B. Is 88cm even enough for 7E?

    Digiturk Reception Eutelsat 7A - Rain Fade

    Hey everyone, I have a Triax 88 pointing to Eutelsat 7A at 7E. My Digiturk set top box shows 100% SQ all the time, but when there is heavy rain, I lose signal and get signal weak error. Is this normal? Cheers

    Nostalgia - Turksat 2A/3A with Sky 43cm Minidish - Results!

    Well most definitely! I am gutted that 3A isn't as strong as 2A, though. I guess at least 60cm is required for 50dB...

    Nostalgia - Turksat 2A/3A with Sky 43cm Minidish - Results!

    After what has probably been 6 years, I decided to swing my small Sky minidish to Turksat. Last time, there was only 2A and 1C satellites to receive signal from. Having replaced 1C with 3A, Turksat boast better and stronger coverage in the UK, so I was hoping that 3A would offer many more...

    Triax 88 and Digiturk

    Turksat is a different bird, the one for Digiturk is at 7E and the indicated EIRP is lower, that's why I asked. Are you getting all of the Turksat channels with the Triax 88?

    Triax 88 and Digiturk

    Hi all, just had a Triax 88 fitted as part of my Digiturk install. I recently obtained the Digiturk Plus box from Cyprus and will be using it in the UK. So far the box is showing 100% signal, but the footprint for Eutelsat W3A shows 46dB on Europe B beam that Digiturk uses. Am I to assume I am...

    Pace DS810XE - Front Display Question

    Hello everyone! Have recently acquired one of these boxes. Has the latest version of the software as far as I know (.35). When you select a channel, the channel ID scrolls past on the front display twice and then it is blank. Is this normal? Is there anyway of making the receiver continuously...

    Turksat with a Minidish from UK !

    Greetings and a happy new year to everyone. I have a Zone 2 Minidish pointed to the 42" orbital slot as I am Turkish myself. I get pretty much all the channels with only signal dropping on some of the lower SR channels. Turksat has recently switched to collating smaller channels within a large...
