I tell you Astro Signal Quite Sensitive.
Only facing in one direction, last time my neighbour installing a awning knocked abit the Dish. Need move the Astro left right.... Btw, isn't there's Astro On The Go? In order to DIY, get a reference point from your neighbours. Then slow position until you hear clear speaking audio and video from your TV and done |

Satellite is not WiFi , not so easy find one
It will only got signal when angle correct then baru fine tune. You need accuracy to be inside 5 degree only, out of that range no signal. angle is easy but elevation is freaking hard. |

QUOTE(replymela @ Oct 4 2012, 12:42 AM) dunno oo...Astro Installation Service charge for service call requests How much is the standard service charge for service call requests? The standard service charge is RM50.00 for Peninsular Malaysia and RM80.00 for Sabah & Sarawak. Please note that the service charge for service call requests applies beyond the equipment warranty period. Any additional charges will depend on the problem e.g. LNB replacement/DMT repair/ ODU relocation etc. Relocation charges: Dismantling - RM50 Reinstallation - RM100 (including 20 metres of cable**) New satellite dish request due to loss/damage - RM150 (including installation and 20 metres off cable**) **Addition cable - RM2.50 per metre http://support.astro.com.my/HelpCenter/Art...de-c642d2e7b81c |

Bro aluminium foil tu remove ok tak remove pun ok tapi mesti tak boleh bersentuh dengan dawai yang tengah.btw..the coaxial cable to BNC socket how to connect??? coz got 1 thin layer of aluminium inside...that one need to remove or not??? for the dish positioning, 3 things you need to adjust: azimuth (arah kiri - kanan), elevation (dongak atas-bawah) and lnb skew (the bullet thing in front of the dish, need to pusing clockwise or counter clockwise after elevation and azimuth is correct). go http://www.dishpointer.com/ , enter your location (can be your house gps coordinate), and for satellite choose 91.5E Measat 3. the site will output the elevation, azimuth and skew degree for your place. for azimuth, use compass for example in kl this is the value from dishpointer: Your Location Satellite Data Dish Setup Data View dish alignment line in Google Earth Latitude: 3.1390° Longitude: 101.6869° Name: 91.5E MEASAT 3A | MEASAT-3 Distance: 35921km Elevation: 77.5° Azimuth (true): 253.1° Azimuth (magn.): 253.4° LNB Skew [?]: 72.8° Turn clockwise standing behind the dish for azimuth, pakai compass pusing sampai dapat bearing 253.4 tu. can use normal compass or digital compass from smartphone. that is where your dish should be pointing to. for elevation (dongakan), check under the dish, there will be a scale 60, 70 ..... until 90. adjust according the value that you got from dishpointer. lnb skew - on top of lnb there will be a arrow mark. 0 degree is when the mark is at the top and the cable connector is at the bottom. for 72.8 degree, to arrow mark will be somewhere in between 2 to 3 o' clock |
