We use a 90cm dish.
We recommend that you call and accredited AzamTV agent to check whether or not your satellite dish will receive the AzamTV signal.
Please visit our troubleshooter section first and check if your problem can be solved with those tools. If you are still facing the problem, please contact us on 0764700222, 0784108000 or 022 550 8080. You can also send an SMS or WhatsApp message to 0788678797 or email us at info@azam-media.com
Yes you can. It is recommended however to use a Two-Way LNB or multiple ways LNB.
Your decoder will be upgraded over the air (OTA) when an upgrade is available.
Yes, heavy rain may affect your signal. This phenomenon is known as "Rain fade" can occur due to weather at reception of signal or at the source causing rain fade. This is unfortunately a feature on all satellite systems worldwide. Rain fade affects the signal in 2 key ways. First, satellite signals become weaker as they pass through raindrops. This is a law of physics, that is, regrettably, beyond our control - and which no satellite company in the world has been able to get around. Second, the location of the storm is important. Even though the storm may not be in your area, storms in other locations (basically, any place where our signals originate and transmit to and from) can still affect your signal.
First check that your cable from the satellite dish is connected to “LNB in” port on your decoder. If it is and you are still experiencing this, please check the signal strength coming from your dish by pressing Menu. Go to Search and press OK. You will be on Auto Search. Check the signal percentage by checking intensity and quality percentage. Intensity should be 70% and Quality 60%. If they are anything less than that, you will get these problems with the channels. Please contact the installer who setup your satellite dish to align the dish properly.
