How to Track NigcomSat 1R @42.5E FTA
Whether you are using Strong or any other variant of decoder, you can receive channels on NigcomSat 1R with a 60cm dish or a wider dish; like DSTV’s 90cm type, 1m or 1.8m dish and above. All boils down to your location in Sub-Sahara Africa.
Some Nigerian based channels have also started transmitting via NigcomSat 1R @42. 5 like TV News, Rayuwa TV, Peoples TV and a host of others.
We also expect more channels in the long run. Since, the whole thing is still on a test phase, reception of TV stations may become unstable thereby making first time tracking difficult. Read on for more details on tracking, frequencies and channels.

The best way to see if a dish size works in your location, is to simply give it a try. Image of a 60cm dish below: 
Main Requirements to Track NigcomSat 1R 42.5E TV Stations
- Satellite Dish
- Satellite Receiver / Decoder e.g Strong.
- KU band LNB
How to Track NigcomSat 1R @42.5E TV Stations Easily
The quickest method to get NigcomSat 1R is 42.5E degree east channels on your decoder, is to first track any DSTV channel at 36.0E. After getting the DSTV channel, simply bring down the dish a little to get 42.5E NigcomSat. Pretty much straight to the point.
To accomplish this ensure:
- The satellite dish have been well plumbed.
- Ensure the KU-band LNB is well fixed
- Next, track DSTV using 12245H/27500.
- Ensure you nail the highest signal on the DSTV’s 12245H/27500 frequency.
- Then insert the NigcomSat 1R frequency 12518H/29500 or any other into your satellite decoder or receiver.
- Bring down the dish bit after bit; you may also add it with an additional left shift by 1 cm simultaneously.
- Continue until you hit the green affirmative.
- Tighten up the dish!.
NB: TV stations on NigcomSat are still running on Test Phase!, you may or may not experience difficulty in getting the stations when there is signal fluctuations. But, fluctuations aren’t much of a big deal in tracking the channels, since they come back to normal in no time. Besides, the signal strength has improved with time. Which means better reliable transmission and reception as the clock ticks by.

How do you track it on qsat decoder? The base freq 12518H 29500, does it apply to lusaka zambia as well? For DSTV do you see the dish channel as confirmation or what will tell for DSTV? How do you tell one inch shift to the left
To track Nigcomsat is straight to the point but a little tricky. First, on your Qsat Decoder enter settings menu….under satelite where you can be able to edit or add a new frequency and symbol rate. Input this DSTV frequency: 12245 symbol rate: 27500 while polarization is either H or V depending on the orientation of your LNB. Now after hitting Green or any colour that shows you have gotten DSTV via the frequency on your QSAT…Now, add the Nigcomsat frequency too from the settings. Looking at the Quality and percentage level on your QSAT decoder, bring down the dish little by little and to the left until you hit Nigcomsat
How many persent quality we can get befour we blind scan
Four the left side is wen
we are the front of the dise or wen we are the back of the dise because i don tring everithings wen i get the dstv signal am tring to brink it dawn small an talun it to the left an right signal now come four the nigcomsat.
