Dude!
I have a six feet, an eight feet, and a 60cm dish that i used to use for my dstv. Im now getting Nilesat, Eutelsat on the two smallish ones, and i finally got Ntv and QTV and Citizen on the 8 feet on Cband, and K24 on a Ku band lnb hanging on the bottom of the Cband lnb.
@skunksme, do you mind sharing the frequencies on 904 for the tv stations? i cannot seem to get anything on 904,
ps:
I had to convert the frequencies to get NTV and Citizen...

@collins,There is alot to gather on fta.The catch is how big is your dish to get the footprint.@skunk,to get intel 904-60E you need a larger c band dish say,8feet.I guess you have a 6feet eurostar solid.That wont do.Tried it within nairobi.But as @skunk put it,you can confidently get intelsat 62E with the 6feet dish solid,not mesh,and intelsat 22(remember for this u need an mpeg4 decoder)
U can make use of your KU dish (90sm) and above to get other fantastic movie channels @7West eutelsat 7 west A.ie MBC,FOX,FOX movies,sports etc.OR
point KU to 68.5E Intelsat 20,to get citizen feed and naija (nollywood) 24/7.

Hi Areba,
At 60°E- Intelsat 904. FTA (NTV, KBC, KISS and K24) are on C band: - No KU beam covering Africa
At 62°E - IS 902 (Citizen(Mpeg 2) and NTV+QTV (Mpeg 4)) - No KU beam covering Africa
You might be having a problem on the two satellites because polarization. The two satellites are on circular polarization, therefore you need dielectric plate.
Instead of pointing to either of above satellite, just point to Intelsat 22 at 72.1°E (C band - circular polarization. No KU beam covering Africa).
Incase you are in Nairobi point to below:
Azimuth = 91.17 Degrees
Elevation = 49.95 Degrees
Channels on IS 22: all MPEG 4
KBC Channel 1
EATV 5
Heritage TV
3 Stones
KTN
NTV
QTV
Family TV
Kiss TV
Sayare TV
K24
Citizen TV
Kass TV
GBS
GOR TV

Me
Hello skunks,
I just realized today that from my bouquet of services i do not have any local TV channels, So I got a C band dish with its LNB and for good measure a KU band lnd. I have pointed these to the general direction of 60E, but cant seem to get anything on scanning the frequencies of say citizen on 62E. is there someone here who has the exact settings ?
these ones seem not to work...
