Try abasheikh electronics, Mombasa. Somebody on jamiiforums had asked the same if I recall correctly. If you don't get it, you may also use the one for 4930. They're exchangeable.

@rankaz.. pls assist cant nab 7e but can get amos 17e & ses5. on jamii they r talking of combining 7e & ses5 on the same LNB but this is not coming..



Firstly, ensure where your dish is positioned is horizontally true. Use spirit level (app) to confirm it's totally flat.

Ensure, too, that the reflective surface of your dish is a smooth curve with absolutely no dents or other surface imperfections.

To nab 7E, start with MBC Mauritius tp on the African beam and maximize that.

Don't believe what everyone says till you've tried it. I myself receive 7E and 5E on two different but adjacent LNBs.


thanks Rankaz

got it y.day. abt 1 cm above amos 17e.
what took long was the fact that mbc came as Rodrigues hence thot it was amos channels. but its a gud choice with continental etc. so plz advice didn't get any digitu.. channels or is it bcoz its not on the footprint?, is there something to be done to atleast make the tp's green?
thanks again.


Seeing as you are quite far outside the official beam coverage map, chances are only a bigger dish will do the magic. Look up a guy called msondaa on jamiiforums.


thanks
done with amos/7e/ses5 now let me try turksat 42e seems to have lots of channels to see if anything of interest.


Careful with ASAS my brother.smile Didn't find much in the only Turksat with an African beam. Try it and update us.


thanks Rankaz..
for me am in the learning process..
just trying to see how this works with tips from guys like you... when I see what is achievable & not eventualy il maybe stick to few sats & lock them..




As we always say on the other side, more grease to your elbows pal.


rankaz..
gud day

when I am on 7e/amos5 there is 1 tp 10968h 1950(on 9e & 10e) that I get upto quality 65% but no channel appears. I cant get this tp on lyngsat. what could this feed be plzz.


I'm not sure what it could be. I'd read in jamiiforums of a new service/ channels being launched on 16A though don't recaall the frequencies.

You may always check for feeds on satfeeds.info

36E is one of the strongest beams around. Unfortunately, the only free channels there will be cctv if my memory serves me right. More grease to your elbow pal. Applause Applause

I gave up on the Badr 4/5/6 constellation after about three days of trying. A re-look at the beams on both satbeams.com and satstar.net shows that the beam passes by those sides of Eldoret and Kerio Valley.

Nilesat ain't much of a headache for me, 180cm pf brings it in beautifully. Not very sure about the small satfinders, I use a SatLink WS-6918P acquired in 2012. I've often seen them mentioned on jamiiforums though haven't paid attention.

SES 7 is in the eastern direction while Nilesat is on the western direction. You'll find it 'below' SES 5.

By the way, what channels did you find on SES-7?

Your ASAS is getting chronic. Next, you'll order for a "Subbi" 1.8 offset dish from Dar.

smile smile Naona you're right on target to be our new ASAS initiate Laughing out loudly . If you live in your own compound/place, just get the 'Subhi' 1.8 offset, guys have already worked out the calculations for you on jamii. I would if I could.

You're right, SES-4 is way beyond Nilesat.

Get a spirit level and confirm the surface on which your dish is placed is totally flat.
