In case you don’t already know, Eutelsat 7 West A @ 7°W(MBC) is the only position where you can always receive the full MBC Packages at all times. We all know that some MBC channels are available on different satellites. Some of these positions include( Nigcomsat, 7.0E, nilesat, Intelsat, ABS3 and so on. If you want to receive all full MBC channels within Africa, you sure need to track them on Eutelsat 7 West A @ 7°W(MBC). In today’s article, I shall be posting about how you Eutelsat 7 West A @ 7°W(MBC) channels and how you can track it. Especially relevant is the fact that you can also track Eutelsat 7 West A @ 7°W(MBC)/ MBC west alongside ABS 3W on a 90-cm dish. This is a free to air package and it is not going off anytime soon. Frankly, this has been available earlier than the year 2015.

Note: Use HD free to air receivers such as strong 4920, 4930, 4950 or 4955 and a good LNB to track. A good satellite finder like satlink, freesat or hellobox B1 is also a better alternative to tracking with a decoder.

I track abs 3 before, so facing the front of the dish shift to the left a bit raise it up a little with tp of 12659v27499 until u get 70%signal strength above. If you are facing the back of your dish turn to the right a little.
@TMAS track abs 3 before, so facing the front of the dish shift to the left a bit raise it up a little with tp of 12659v27499 until u get 70%signal strength above. If you are facing the back of your dish turn to the right a little.
