Mesh will only work for C-band. For Ku-band it must be solid.

ES anatupa memory kidogo anahitaji kubadilishwa relay. Only an import can achieve the feat.:smiley:

My installer did mine on Wednesday for Apstar and IS 20. Iā€™m using Openbox v7 Combo. Itā€™s okay except for some IS 20 channels not showing at night. The main issue i have with the installation is lack of EPG. This forces me to check om the web for the upcoming shows. Also there was no signal for NSS12 forcing me to settle for the two satellites only.

Great progress sir. If I may, what size and type (pf or offset) of dish are you using? Which is the focal LNB?

And I guess the channels are the Sonyā€™s Six SD, ESPN SD and Sony Pix. If so, the best way to overcome this is to set them up at night, by increasing the quality. If your installer set em up early morning then you are doomed.

The dish is 180cm pf. The LNB ndio sijui. I gave the installer the money and akakuja nazo tatu. But two of them i think he said cost 1500/= each but the third one was 2500/= according to him

The channels ni hizo umesema. He set them mchana na ni wa nai. So like youā€™ve said Iā€™m doomed

You still havenā€™t told me which is your prime LNB.

All the same, try fine-tuning IS-20 reception in the evening. Try a variation where you have IS-20 as the prime LNB or A-7. The latter makes it easier to add NSS-12 though itā€™ll only be stable with the bigger 240cm (8ā€™) pf dish.

I think he told me the PRIMARY LNB was for Apstar. Hizi vitu sielewi sana. Wacha ni upload photo uone
