How to install a satellite 🛰️ dish and position

                       

how to
locate a particular satellite position when
installing Satellite?

Things you need to know and put them on your
brain. You need to understand that satellite
television positions are on EAST & WEST
POSITION. The technicality to locate a
particular satellite position manually is very
vital.
To locate a satellite positions on East
position, you need to understand that the lower
the satellite degree, e.g Eutelsat 7 degree East
or 3 degree, the higher your dish will face up.
That means when the satellite degree is lower,
you need to elevate your dish higher. In the
same way, the higher your satellite degree, e.g
Intelsat 68.5 degree East, the lower your dish
position. That means, your dish position will
face down when the satellite degree is higher.
One thing you should also know is that, when
the degree is lower, the higher you move or
elevate the dish higher to the right. In the same
way, when the is higher, you move, shift or
elevate your dish lower to the left. A good
example is Intelsat 20 @ 68.5 degree East.
Finally, when tracking satellite position
on west position, it is almost the same method
but there is slight different. Know that West is
opposite East. In tracking satellite position on
west, understand that the lower the degree, e.g
Abs 3, the higher you elevate your dish. This
time, you will move or elevate to the left as
against East position which is right when the
degree is lower. Also when the degree is higher,
e.g 70 degree west, the lower your dish will
become, this time it is shifted to the right.

HOW TO MERGE satellite..

The simplest and easiest method is this…

To add an lnb to any dish…The higher in degree goes up,the lower in degree goes down
1.if I track nigcomsat(42°) and want to attach tstv(45°)
I will attach tstv on the top of the dish because 45° is higher in degree(number)

2. I track mytv(16°)
   I want to add multi TV(28.2°)
   I will add it Above..

Always add larger frequencies above

3. I track 7°W
   And I want to attach 3°W
   I will attach it below…
   That’s the simple trick..
4. I track nigcomsat I want to add multi tv
   I will add it below..

NB: always add lower degrees downward and add higher degree upward…

INSTALLING MULTIPLE LNBS ON A SINGLE
DISH

Installing multiple lnbs on a single dish may not
be easy but is one of the ways to track a lot of
satellites if you can not afford two or three
dishes to track them separately.

The key to this, is patience. It may be difficult at
the begining but fun in the end.
Yes it is true that you can receive more than one
satellite on a single dish.
The question is how would you know which satellites can combine on one satellite dish.

THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT TO COMBINE

1. The satellites beam must cover your location.
2. Is the satellites located in the same cardinal
   hemisphere (East or West)
3. Is the orbital angle between the satellites is
   less than 20 degree?
   The orbital angles are usually written together
   with the name of the satellite e.g. Astra 2F 28.2
   deg east.
   name> Astra 2f
   orbital angle> 28.2e
   with this in mind it is easy to calculate the
   difference between two satellites.

Example: The difference between ASTRA 2F
28.2e and AMOS 517e is 28.2-17=11.2
this is less than 20deg so it means one can track
the two together on a single dish.

4. The next question is how will i know the distance
   between the two lnbs when fixed together.
   The difference between the orbital angles is not
   the same as the distance between the lnbs.
   some of the satellites you can track together
   with a single lnb.
   example Eutelsat 7 and Ses 5
   Amos5 and eutelsat 16
   Astra 2f and Badr5
   intelsat 20 and Eutelsat 70B.others you will need another lnb. Praying to GOD first
