Multi TV: Installation guide, TV decoder, channels, and frequencies
Multi TV is a direct-to-home satellite television station in Ghana that brings you non-stop entertainment throughout the day. The station has many award-winning channels and programmes and delivers quality, rich entertainment for all. An advantage of using Multi TV is that it does not bother users with monthly charges. All you have to do is get a Digibox, install it, and start watching your favourite shows. But like other similar services, you will have to figure out how to install Multi TV before you get started.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Before you install Multi TV, you need to know the best direction to point its satellite. Your Multi TV satellite should point toward the East because the signal frequencies come from the East. After that, you can install Multi TV and start watching.
How can I install Multi TV in Ghana?
Multi TV offers free digital channels in over 28 countries in Africa. It has quality entertainment for everyone. You can watch news, sports, music, movies, reality shows, etc.
Installing a Multi TV Ghana satellite dish
The process is not complicated. You can hire an expert or do it yourself. Here is a step-by-step guide to installing a Multi TV Ghana satellite dish:
- The first step is to mount your dish in the proper position. The set comprises a round plate, a dish cap, a stand, LNB and LNB holder, and dish accessories.
- The dish comes with an installation manual that teaches how to assemble it. Ideally, mounting the plate involves fitting the LNB to the arm, with connectors facing downwards. The LNB should go in its holder.
- Once done, you must mount the stand with the four holes at the rear end in a position you had selected earlier. The stand has four holes. Avoid turning or bending it when mounting.
- Ensure you align the bracket vertically, or it will be challenging to find the satellite.
- Also, it should face the East and should not have any obstacles interfering with it.
- If everything goes well, secure the bolts and screws tightly to prevent the dish from moving in strong winds. But first, ensure it is easier to adjust it to find better signals. You can tighten it later once you get a strong signal.
Setting the dish
The Multi TV frequency is 12525. When installing your satellite dish, ensure it faces East to get more signals. The next step is to connect your dish. Here is how it is done:
- Make a hole for the cable by drilling through the wall or window frame nearest your bracket.
- Ensure water will not run into the hole when drilling. You can do this at an angle.
- Feed the cable through the hole from the inside.
- Cut off a short piece, then fit the F connector to the end that leads to the receiver.
- In simple terms, use the connectors provided to connect the coaxial cable from your dish to the receiver.
- Connect the cable to the LNB input of the receiver.
- Power the receiver ON and get started.
