HOW YOU CAN EASILY TRACK MBC ON EUTELSAT 3A

The reason I am using MBC as my practical example is because MBC nowadays are the rescuers of Africa because it serves as server for all our STB products, free to air boxes. So let us get started;
1. Locate a DSTV dish near your area as that will give the idea of where your EAST is. NOTE that DSTV is on EUTELSAT W4/7. Start by tracking DSTV MULTICHOICE Africa on EUTELSAT w4/7 with the following settings 11940 H 27500; put your LNB AT 9 O’clock.

2. When you have tracked w4/7, hold your dish in place and input Sirius 4 frequency 12605 V 29950. Standing in front of your dish, lift your dish up to face the sky and down while you move
slowly to the left of DSTV dish. When you get Sirius 4 hold your dish there and input this; 12728 v 30000, for w3a and bring your dish down slightly and bring it back to your right a little. Just work around Sirius 4 for w3a. The sat will turn green, then blind scan or use lyngsat to add other channels.

Now let me show you some receivable satellites and their frequencies;
Eutelsat w4(DSTV, Hi-TV), Sirius 4, Nss7, Intelsat(My tv), Astra(Multi tv and infinity) can work on 60cm size of Hi-TV dish while Mbc needs 90cm and above in Nigeria.
