Sir, What is the current frequency and symbol rate for the following channels on NSS7 C Band East Hemisphere Beam: CFI(canal france horizons),TV+,and 2M Maroc. The transponders on Lyngsat.com are not working. Thanks.

Hi,there was something being broadcasted on that satellite and the dish used was 1.8meters. We used C and Ku lnbs but neither made the receiver to indicate and the quality didnt turn green. One of my friends was watching Loveworld on Nss7 westafrica Beam. We used the ATOM receiver on his dish...

Dear Sir, One of my friends bought a receiver from China called ATOM1400 and the receiver at installation didnt detect signals from NSS7 but detected Intelsat906 FTA C-Band channels. We tried all we could but it still didnt detect NSS7 inspite of our Satellite finder indicating full signal...

any more satellites above me i.e Nigeria??

yes I am scanning the pre programmed transponder list.But if the signal rate and downlink frequency correspond to what lyngsat says then I wonder the problem. Or have those channels left that transponder and lyngsat hasnt updated? In fact that transponder couldnt be detected. Anyway are there...

i am located in Lagos, Nigeria and why I worry is because the only FTA channel I receive on NSS7 is TV5 Afrique. I need more FTA channels and if Lyngsat says its there and I cant get it then that's supposed to make me wonder if all my Fortec can get is 1 channel. I feel so bad If by sunday I...

so does it mean i need a new dish say 120 cm to receive signals from this transponder (11171V)?.

Sir, On NSS7, transponder 11171V (West Africa Beam)is supposed to give me some 13 FTA channels according to this site www.lyngsat.com/nss7.html but it doesnt. Please give me more information about this transponder and any changes that have be made on it. Thanks davies_z

So no channels???????? so is it that there are no channels at all on Astra 2b west africa beam? if yes, then what other satellite transmit FTA channels other than PAS10, and NSS7 on KU band? Thanks :no :no

Sir, Please how many FTA channels are on Astra 2B Steerable KU Beam to West Africa. Check out http://www.ses-astra.com/satellites/steerable.shtml and help me get the no of FTA channels here. Thanks

Sorry I meant PAS 10. Thanks. What of NSS7? Can a 60cm dish work to get signals from it?

Can I use a 60cm dish with a Fortec receiver to receive signals from Euelsat W4,PAS 17, and Intelsat 907 from Nigeria?Please also recomend an Adequate size dish for my area. Thanks

Sir, Please on lyngsat.com I saw that some of the channels like God Channel are on C-band.Can a Fortec Ultra receiver receive such stations when you use a Universal LNB/F?
