Eutelsat W4 - Yes.

PAS 17 - Do you mean PAS 7? Nothing on PAS 7 is transmitted to Nigeria. Or do you mean PAS 10? It should work.

Intelsat 907 - Yes, but everthing is encrpyted that is transmitted to Nigeria.

What size dish? A 2.4 meter or more c-band dish would be more useful.

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

The West Africa spot beam on NSS 7 looks pretty strong. A 60cm dish should work.
