[oilfieldcowboy]

Hello, I am about to go to Doha,Qatar to work about 2yrs, I want to set up my FTA system. I have an nfusion & viewsat ultra box with a dish pro 500 antenna. I need someone to guide me in what equipment needed in Qata, Also what sat angles to point my antenna to recieve FTA

You seem to have quite a bit of equipment there just to get a couple channels from 110 & 119. If you call your DN rep when you are transferred I am confident they can help you with any info you need.

Give a clear horizon, you can "see" satellites +/- 45 degrees from your longitude. Since Doha, Qatar is at 50 EAST, you should be able to see birds from 5 EAST to 95 EAST.

(I'm shouting EAST because the United States is WEST.) IE, no DN over there.

Now, go to LyngSat - Lyngemark Satellite and look at the birds and stuff available over there. Europe, Africa & Middle East - LyngSat

You might want to check with the laws of the land too. Some places tax or prohibit satellite. It ain't America.

Good luck.

In addition to waht said above, you will need a 30"+ dish and UNIVERSAL LNBF for the Middle East. Plus a HH Motor to move your dish. Check Mkit1 Motorized combo Satellite Dish with HH Motor, LNBF, Offset Prime Focus Fortec Star Winegard
