Thats not good news, because im trying to get 26E and john has lost all signal on it! lol

 

[JOHN896]

Signal has come back to 50%,20 % less than what i was getting.

 

[terriers]

what percent does the quality have to drop to john to cause probs??

 

[garyg]

on show sports with my tm 1500 super 40% is the lowest then picture breaks up, sometimes 39% would be ok.

But on a standard TM 46% was the limit

 

[terriers]

quite a difference between super and non super!! its 46% too on my 5400 non super...so i may think of getting a super model for when the signal drops off in the winter....i think the summer signal has now peaked and is starting to drop a little...quality was as high as 70% on 11996h a month ago...but now late fifties early evening....i have a hbs innovative and this could produce a good picture at 40% quality when their server was working..when the 5400 couldn,t......so receiver defo as important as dish size/lnb....also i am using an invacom single lnb...and reports suggest a quad of the same make will perform better....the inverto lnb was dissapointing on my dish..

Required:
HD Satellite receiver with embedded Irdeto CAM.

Required Dish Size:
Very much depends on where you are. There are four satellite available to choose from. (not sure what it means by 4 satellites... theres only 2!)

The Abu Dhabi Sports HD package offers the most comprehensive coverage of English Premier League football anywhere, with every game LIVE.

With 6 dedicated High Definition sports channels, Abu Dhabi Sports will broadcast all the EPL Saturday 3pm games simultaneously as well as covering all Mid Week games and every match broadcast on British Satellite TV. That's 380 games in total. Every single game.

All the Sport channels have two audio tracks allowing you to choose alternate broadcast commentary, when available.

** NOTE on DISH SIZES.

The Atlantic Bird 4A satellite (on 7.2 west) is extremely weak in northern Europe and is only suited to certain eastern Mediterranean regions.

The Badr 6 Satellite (on 26 East) is more suited to Europe but dish size will be an issue. Existing channels on 26 East can be received in Western Europe with a 1.5 metre dish so do the Maths depending on your location. The closer to Southern Europe you are, the smaller the dish size required. For example, an 80cm dish will work in Mallorca.

Additional available FTA channels carrying sports will be listed here as soon as the season starts.

I hope they have English most of the times, I expect they will

 

[garyg]

They will do mate it will be the same as showtime, basically if english comentry is at the ground they will have it

 

[garyg]

Looks like they will have 2 transponders on each satellite...

Not sure why this is?

 

[Barry Young]

Gary, Thanks for the info. If this is correct, it sounds like excellent news for all. your dogged persistance seems to have paid off.

 

[garyg]

Are badr 6 Verticles stronger then Horizontal? Like on nilesat...

If so and those transponders are correct then it is very good news

No, you have the choice to buy the card and box or just the card on the ADMC site. He's bullshitting so you'll buy the box from him.

 

[garyg]

Have another look at the official admc site mate...
