@hotwire.Bravo!You are really learning very fast.Though it seems to me your connectig rods need a touch of paint.

@hotwire. Cover the gaps between the cosecutive reflector sections with strips of aluminium foil.Check your signal qualities and let me know your findings It's just a tip.

@ Blexxonmak
@George D
Your kind words have really motivated me. I will cover the gaps as Blexxomak suggested. Will report findings tomorrow. Thanks for the TIP.Georgie would make for a Diplomat anyday unlike some people who use grammar to hurt members.

@Solo Ing1
Thanks for the tutorial on reducing jpeg file sizes. Better to teach a person how to fish than provide the fish to him. May God increase you in resourcefull knowledge

Ameboperoo:

The way some people use to quote is very unnecessary.

@ameboperoo.Are you referring to me or butoneday. I think the above comments are quite uncalled for.

@hotwire. You are welcome.

@Howire
Pls kindly don't forget about the stuff as promised (3LNBs on 1 dish). My email is magaddai@yahoo.com.
Thanx.

@ blexxonmak

I think it is good news in some ways.  With the advent of cardsharing, most of the coders stopped making keys and emus, everybody started switching over to cardsharing.

@ my main  man Pwr VU is compromised and the numbers are already out. Just remaining for the products emu fm to be released.

and the coders will also start working on the almighty N that deprived us of Etv and Sabc.

@Twinstaye
You are completely wrong about your assumptions of " MY TYPE". I search the child boards like anyone else. I read this thread always and not just a claim. Come off your high horse!

@Microgiant,
I have posted the pix to your gmail. Thanks.

Picking on me? You sure know how to ride a horse then.  You come off your low horse, It is not an assumptions, it is what i know for a fact, no wonder you claimed to read all about multi tv here when there is in fact a thread open for that. I am doing my job as moderator, I am not here to please you.
And I hasten to add that, one more pick on me, the post wont see the light of the day.

That will be an abuse of moderator powers --- in so far as the chap does not break the rules. And that is not simply because it has happened to me too in the past.

well every sane member here will know he's refering to enitan2002. Well to tell you the fact, i'm not here to get accolades from members, i give help when its needed, and i scorn when its needed also. I dont give a hoot whether you're pleased or displeased by my remarks.

I know my sheep,. and my sheep knows me.

How i wish i have power like twinsty d moderator, and olofofo being the chairman of the g group, hmmmmm make i just reserve my comments.

Adios.

you cant be in office without abusing it once in a while, thats why those in office are a little ahead of us, they have the authority, let them make use of it, if not them, who will?

Moderator, ride on!!!!!!!

enitan2002:

And you think that is a good thing?

Try me. as if you can write that back at me. No point in defending him, this is not your fight enigma. If you dont like  my mode of moderation, you can petition the admin. He will be glad to recruit you to take over

I have no need to petition the owner nor any desire whatsoever to act as moderator. As a contributor, I have the right to air my opinion ----- within the rules.

Then, allow me to do my job.

Then allow us to air legitimate opinions. Easy!

If you have legitimate opinions that is relevant to the FTA, I dont disturb you airing it, but when it becomes tantrums that will distract members and drift away from the thread, I wont condone it. Like I said, let me do my job.

Do your job, man; no one is preventing you from doing that. I will always air my opinion if I see abuse/likely abuse of power ---- until I am banned or something.

Enigma baba, see whether ty is doing the right or wrong, me cant say for now. When someone posted the pictures of badaru and i on the forum some months back, nobody deemed it necessary to come out boldly and criticise that action of the insane fellow. They were all trying to be the good fellas, they dont wanna step on toes, what i've found in life is that, no matter how careful you are, you gonna step on some toes and you can't please everyone.
We cant be full of only right things in our life, at least lets mix it up with little of the nauthy and bad ones too. So if you categorise the deleting of posts as bad thing from ty, then i'm in full support of that. Thats what makes life intresting. Ciao.

You have not seen abuse yet, watch me!!!
Now I know why you are causing troubles here, so much that you expect to be ban. No matter how you tried to fight it, I will moderate the way i deem it fit.

eni

No hard feelings at anyone at all, in all honesty. I just say things as I see it --- when I can be bothered.

Keep FTA flag flying.  

@ Enigma,
thanks for the info i really appreciate it.

pls can i have your email so that i can ask some more questions on a different level? as it's really rather difficult browsing this days.
thanks
@ hotwire
thanks for the pics. . . expect more questions

@freshp

Use enigmatrax@hotmail.com

I might be slow to respond but I will get back to you in the end.

@all

let's try to do thing in an organized manner, by taking full advantage of the child boards. how long will we continue to talk about the same thing over and over again.

same ol question
same ol pictures
same ol same ol,
same ol abuses (enitan)
same ol grammars (enigma)
same ol expose (toxnaija)
same ol insights (fmarshal)
same ol story (olofofo,badaru, bodejohn, butoneday)
it's beginning to get really boring!

Wao, olofofo, u be witch?

@ Moderator
       instead of shutting the official thread for fta down,we can name it fta gossip forum,since this thread is all about  about fta talks,at least i always enjoy my man enitan here.
Pitodenz, are u feeling cool now,
A whole page dedicated for all these?
Am sure most FTA lovers we be afraid to post to this thread today or ask question…thank God for GSM…me? Na call I go call my people…like Eni said, I know my pple n my pple know me…
Long live FTA….for lifeeeeeee

@ enigma,
well b4 i mail you i just edited hotwires picture to really ask if this is what you mean.
from the pic A is nilesat, B is W3A and C is Multi TV.
are my wave direction(s) correct?
if yes then I'm good to go , If no then

@freshp

Exactly! W3A is 7e and multi TV is 28e; normally, they should be on the other side of the Nilesat LNB except that the east is reversed to "west" in multi LNB setup.

What confused me earlier was that the LNB which you now call 7e, Microgiant had referred to as 22w ---- which cannot really be correct.

Is Malagasy on W3A?

EDIT I now realise that "Malagasy" or "Madagascar" refers to the MBCs on 7e ----- so you are totally correct.

@ enigma
well yeah that is as at the last time i checked in fact it is the only channel i have been able to nail and i guess it is because my lnb is scewed wrongly. . .i hv not been chanced to adjust it.
MBC,MBC 1,and 2 i have not been able to nail.

@All
I wish to use this medium to express my gratitude to all of you Gurus for availing us the opportunity to learn( and still learning) from you All.
i never knew this was the case with Multi LNB set up.
thanks once Again.

Looking at the picture more closely, one would have thought, the lnb (b) is more closer to the nilesat LNB which to me seems that it is not w3a, w3a seems a little further from nilesat, unless of course I am looking at it from the point of view that my own dish is 2.4m

probably,well i'm just stating it from hotwire's description. . . and enigma seems to agree with him.
well i'm still learning.

I should point out a qualification that I added on the multi-LNB thread.

My earlier reply was based on the positioning of the LNBs alone. The LNBs are correctly Nilesat at focus, 7e at B and 28e at C. I do not think your arrows showing the incoming directions of the waves and signals are correct --- but that is not critical for practical purposes; that is more relevant for theoretical understanding.

@BUTONEDAY,
24hrs FTA viewing coming very soon in my abode. This weekend I intend to begin testing Nilesat continous igbadun as I add two more sharp modules to my solar array. Your man in Lagos is already packaging the items for shipment as we speak!!!

FTA power from above coming sooooooon!!!!!
