HOW TO WATCH NBCU ENTERTAINMENT CHANNEL FROM INTELSAT 68.5°E.

NBCU Entertainment is a TV channel that has been scrambled with powervu. This channel can be found at different satellites but I am going to talk about the one on Intelsat 20 @ 68.5°E kuband satellite with this transponder;
Freq (12562), Pol (V), SR (2866).

Before you can watch this channel, you need latest updated powervu key for your decoder to open it. Since you can not get or your decoder does not support powervu keys, there is one receiver called "alphabox x4 or x6" that opens the channel automatically.

But before Alphabox can open NBCU Entertainment TV channel automatically, you have to download the latest software for it. You have to make sure it is a genuine and original Alphabox decoder, since there lots of imitations in the market. And after your upgrade has finished the channel will automatically open for you and you are all set!

HOW TO SOLVE BOOTING PROBLEM ON SRT 4950H AND SRT 4950E DECODERS.

In this article, I'm going to show you how to solve the booting problem in "SRT 5950 H" and "SRT 4950 E". Sometimes you will see "boot" displayed in the screen of these two decoders that it will remain like that without booting as shown in the image above.
This normally happens when the software on the decoder had expired outdated.

To solve this problem, you will first download the latest software for the type of your decoder from the website of strong technology. If you can't access the internet with your computer, you can download the software with your mobile phone and transfer the file into your PC.
If your decoder is SRT 4950H download 4950H software, the same applies to 4950E.

Having done with your download, get a clean quality flash drive (pen drive).
Rename or change the name of the downloaded file to rom from your PC and send it into flash drive. Take the drive from the PC and insert it into the drive slot of your decoder.
Power on the decoder and press the power button in front of the decoder at the same time and your upgrade will start immediately. After the upgrade your decoder will boot successful and you are all set!

NOTE: Do not put the file into a folder in your pen drive but put it into the root direct. If you put the file into a folder, the decoder will not be able to read it.
If this process did not solve the booting problem of your decoder then your drive has a problem that you need to change it.

How To Boot Your Computer Without Hitting F1.

         
            

If you have always been hitting F1 key when booting your computer, then this is the solution.
This normally happens when time and date are not set correctly. Try and set the date and time correctly, either you set from the setup menu or boot before you set.

After you have finished setting time and date, save your settings and switch the computer off by removing the power cable from the electricity socket.

Switch on the machine again and see if the problem still persist, then switch off the computer again and open the case of the computer you will see a small battery like the one in a wrist watch as shown in the image below.

Remove the battery and replace with new one. Switch on the device and set date and time again.
Save your settings and reboot and you are good to go without hitting F1 or any key again.

The purpose of this battery is to save some some settings in the computer for example date and time. So if the battery is not working, it can not save the date and the time.

Tricks And Tips In Tracking A Satellite With Ease.

              

           

Most people find it difficult to track or install a satellite because, they lack the tips and tricks in it. Carefully read this article and you will know how to track any satellite with ease. 

One big mistake most installers does is installing a satellite with the dish dropping down to the top of the roof. You can see this from the image above.

Do you know that if the degree of a particular satellite is higher, the lower your dish will drop down? The same applies to lower degree satellite which will also be raised up. Example; 68.5° satellite will come down whilst 16° will be raised.

So in this case if you try to install 68.5° with a dish dropping on the top of the roof, you will not get the signal. You can see from the above image that, I used to drop the dish on top of the roof. This was possible because, the satellite has a lower degree (°) which is 16°E. 

Another big issue is the positioning or skewing of the lnb. If the lnb did not positioned or faced in the right direction, you will start from early in the morning to evening by receiving nothing.

So standing in front of the dish, you should turn the connector of the lnb to 3 o'clock direction and after hitting the signal, adjust it to increase the signal.

Another one is the device you are using for tracking the satellite. If you are tracking or installing with a decoder,  don't use HD (High Definition) decoders since they do not pick the signal quickly.  You can use mpeg 4 decoder or satellite finder (meter) and then scan with your HD decoder later.
An example of mpeg4 decoder is strong (srt 4669) x or xii.

Make sure you have a genuine Lnb .

Make sure you input the correct tp (transponder) for the satellite you are tracking. Make sure the particular frequency or tp is highlighted.

I hope you can now install your satellite with ease.

How To Receive FM Radio Channels From A Distance.

In most places especially rural or village areas, FM radio signals are difficult to receive. In this case, I'm going to show you how to receive FM radio channels or stations from a distance of about 85 to 90 miles from where you are. 

Image displaying an extended FM radio antenna. 

Things you will need; 

1) A long pole of about 20 FT long, use a wood or a bamboo stick. Don't use a metal pole.

2)An aluminum bar of about 3 FT long, example is the one on top of the bamboo pole as shown from the image above.

3) A 2.5mm electric cable, you will measure it from your room to the top of the pole. 

4) FM radio tuner or any FM radio receiver. 

To start the process peel a small portion of the electric cable and connect or join it to the aluminum bar. Then tie the aluminum bar to the other end of the wooden or bamboo pole.

Place the pole in a hole and send the electric cable to your room. Connect the cable to the antenna of your radio or tuna.
Switch on the device and start tunning  and you will see how numerous channels or stations you will receive. 

Note that some FM radio receivers doesn't have good reception, so try and use the one with good reception.
