In this article we will look at installing and configuring a satellite dish on the Eutelsat 36A/36B satellite broadcasting from a position of 36°East (36 degrees east longitude). The most popular Russian television operators NTV+ and Tricolor broadcast from this satellite, and broadcast in circular polarization. To receive circular polarization, you need a special KU-band converter. They come in different designs and can have either one output or 2-16 outputs. The main thing is to carefully read the inscription on the label. On the circular polarization heads there is the inscription Circular LNB, Input Freq: 11.7-12.75 GHz, L.O. Freq 10.75GHz. Accordingly, the local oscillator frequency in the receiver settings should be set to 10750 MHz.
Unlike universal (dual-band) converters with linear polarization, converters with circular polarization have one range of 11.7 GHz -12.75 GHz.
Broadcasting television channels from a satellite is carried out using several transponders (receiver devices), different satellites have their own number. Each transponder (receiver) has its own frequency, polarization, modulation, data transfer rate and other parameters. Circular polarization can have either a right or left direction of oscillation, and depending on this, right and left circular polarization are distinguished. In most receivers, when setting transponder parameters such words as “right” and “left” polarization, you most likely will not find what to do in this case? When installing the right (R - right) polarization - in the receiver we select vertical (V - vertical), which corresponds to the converter supply voltage of 14 volts, and when installing the left (L - left) polarization - in the receiver we select horizontal (H - horisontal) , which corresponds to the converter supply voltage of 18 volts. Select the installation location and direction of the satellite dish:
In order to quickly install a satellite dish, you need to know the direction to our satellite. You can find out the direction using a compass, the sun, a GPS navigator, or small-diameter dishes located nearby. Since the signal from the Eutelsat 36A/36B satellite in the CIS countries is quite powerful, you can receive channels from this satellite even on small dishes (0.6m).
The fastest and most accurate direction to a satellite can be found using the program. This program will calculate the azimuth and elevation required for installing and configuring the dish to any available satellite at your geographic receiving point. You just need to specify your geographic coordinates of the installation location - northern latitude - "N", southern latitude - "S". Likewise, east longitude is "E", west longitude is "W". After entering the coordinates into the program, on the left side of the table you will receive the calculated azimuth and elevation angles (elevation angle) of the antenna.
Azimuth- this is the direction to the satellite (in degrees), defined as the angle between the directions north and the satellite, found according to the compass. Elevation angle- this direction, defined as the angle (in degrees) between the direction to the satellite and the plane of the earth at the receiving point, is determined using a program, measured using a protractor. A negative elevation angle means that the satellite is below the horizon and is not available for reception.
You can find out the coordinates of a place using the Yandex.Maps API service, or in any search engine, enter into the query: the coordinates of your location.
For example, let's calculate the Azimuth and Elevation Angle for the Eutelsat 36A/36B (36E) satellite, our conditional location is Moscow. As a result we get our Azimuth: 210.474°, Elevation Angle: 41.737°.
Knowing the azimuth, we use a compass to determine our antenna direction. Be sure to check that the direction to the satellite is free from high-rise buildings, trees and other obstacles.
We also first need to set the Elevation Angle; the wonderful “Satellite Antenna Alignment” program will also help us with this. Since during installation we will use an offset antenna, it already has a certain elevation angle (within 20-25 degrees). All you need to do is measure and enter the dimensions of your offset antenna (height and width) and the program will calculate the exact elevation angle for this antenna. The calculation is made only for antennas whose height is greater than their width. The antenna dimensions are entered in millimeters in the "Offset antenna" tab. The elevation angle and the angle at which you actually need to install the antenna will also be shown.
So, we have decided on the installation location and the angle of inclination of the antenna; now we need to firmly and securely mount our bracket on the wall of a building, the roof of a high-rise building or a mast. If we are installing the antenna on the wall of a building (this is the preferred option), then we first need to secure the bracket using fasteners, controlling the verticality of the bracket at the water level.
Preparing the antenna before tuning:
Before installing the antenna, it must be assembled and its geometry checked. First, we screw the arc to the mirror, then we install the fasteners to the bracket and install the circular polarization converter.
Satellite dish setup:
Before setting up the dish, you need to prepare equipment for setup: this can be either a special SatFinder device with pre-selected transponders, or a satellite receiver with a prepared set of transponders, a head local oscillator frequency set to 10750 MHz and a connected portable TV. We install the antenna on the bracket, set the azimuth using the compass (210° for Moscow), and use a protractor to set the inclination angle of the dish (105°). Using a piece of cable, we connect the receiver to the Eutelsat 36A/36B convector.
Tuning should begin with the strongest transponders and end with the weakest, achieving maximum readings on the quality scale. Let's go to Receiver menu -> Antenna installation -> Channel search -> Eutelsat 36.0E satellite,select any of the transponders listed in Table 1, and a scale should appear for visual control of the signal. Please note that for each brand of receiver, the satellite setting item may be located in a different location, and the setting scales are also different. It is convenient to have a receiver with a scale that expands to fill the entire screen for adjustment.
Table No. 1. Satellite antenna transponder parameters:
Satellite | Transponder | Visual inspection channel |
Eutelsat 36B/36C | 11900 R(V) 27500 | TV1000 Russkoe Kino, Viasat Sport East, EuroNews |
11977 R(V) 27500 | Moya Planeta, Nauka 2.0, Ru TV | |
12130 R(V) 27500 | Nat Geo Wild HD, Mezzo Live HD, Perviy kanal HD | |
12303 L(H) 27500 | Soyuz, TV2-TV |
By smoothly and slowly rotating the antenna in the horizontal direction, we scan the horizon with the antenna, after which we slightly change the vertical angle of the antenna and again repeat the horizontal scanning. All these actions must be performed slowly, constantly observing changes in the quality scale readings, until a signal appears. If a signal appears, you need to stop, slightly tighten the screws that fix the angles of rotation and tilt, and with light, insignificant movements up and down, left and right, achieve the maximum signal level on the scale. Then we firmly fix the screws securing the angle of inclination and the angle of rotation of the plate. Next, we proceed to fine-tune the converter, to do this we rotate it a little in the holder, you can also move it a little back and forth along the holder, while achieving maximum readings on the QUALITY scale.
VERY IMPORTANT POINT! We need to make sure that the antenna is tuned specifically to our satellite Eutelsat 36A/36B, and not to some other one. To do this, we scan the transponders from table 1 and turn on NTV Plus Infokanal, or another, then a picture should appear (if the channel is not encrypted). If the channels were not scanned or the wrong ones were scanned, then the antenna is configured for a different satellite, and the setup should be repeated. When everything is done, you need to tighten all the adjusting screws, focusing on the maximum signal scale readings. Let me remind you once again that the final adjustment should be made using weak transponders.
That's it, the antenna setup is complete, all that remains is to run the cable to the stationary TV, connect the tuner, scan all the transponders, sort the channels by topic and enjoy the picture quality.
Enjoy watching!
Today, NTV Plus is a leader in the field of satellite broadcasting. This network has a huge number of channels that show programs with various content. Any viewer will be able to find something interesting to suit their taste, because NTV packages are considered the best if we are talking about family viewing.
In 2017, the company operates on several satellites, as in principle it was in 2016. This allows us to provide a stable, high-quality signal in all regions of the country. Viewers appreciated the efforts to improve the signal and often opt for NTV, preferring a proven and reliable provider to a cheap, but frankly speaking, not very high-quality product. TV packages from NTV Plus are designed for different audiences, but their cost is always adequate. All that remains is to configure the frequencies on which the provider operates in order to enjoy high-quality television.

What equipment will you need?
To ensure that channels are viewed normally and their quality does not suffer, users are recommended to use special equipment. With its help, the frequency at which satellites operate is much easier to adjust, and images in HD format are received without problems. Here, by the way, is a small list of what a user must have in order to set frequencies and watch their favorite TV channels:
- TV antenna (dish);
- Lnb convector and HD receiver;
- High quality TV with plasma screen. LED panel, LSD panel, in general, any device that supports HD format;
- High quality audio system.
As a rule, this is enough, but sometimes you can use additional equipment. The main thing is that the antenna is strong and can withstand various interferences, which sometimes affect the stability of the signal. Here is a small list of interference that can negatively affect the quality of the picture shown on the TV:
- In the first case, a lot depends on weather conditions. Sometimes heavy snowfall, especially if snow sticks to the dish, can significantly interfere with signal reception. In this case, even a correctly configured frequency does not help;
- Tall trees that block the path to the signal from the satellite. There should not be a single tree nearby or along the perimeter for at least 20 meters. In addition, there should be no buildings opposite the antenna that block the satellite broadcast. The signal can not only be blocked, but also pass through, but with such interference that there will be no point in having the equipment;
- If the user himself installed an antenna that receives the NTV Plus frequency. Of course, no one forbids the buyer to carry out the procedure for installing and configuring the equipment himself. But an inexperienced user may confuse something, accidentally break it, or connect it incorrectly. Naturally, after this no one will be able to adjust the frequencies so that the channels start working.
NTV Plus transponders
The company has a pair of main transponders that operate in all regions of the country. For example, in the east, west and south, thanks to the high-quality satellite signal, users can easily receive quality television at an affordable price. There are only two main transponders operating on Russian territory.
- NTV Plus transponder;
- NTV Plus HD transponder.
In turn, the devices under consideration can be divided into several categories, which are distinguished depending on the polarization, frequency and signal speed. Transponders with right and left polarization can be distinguished.
- Among the transponders with left circular polarization are:
- Among the transponders with right-hand circular polarization are:
- Channels owned by the MATCH holding, TNT, Our Football, Zvezda, federal NTV, RBC. In addition, there is an NTV Plus information channel. They operate at a frequency of 11785 R;
- NTV Plus products, the broadcast frequency of which is 11900 R. In particular, this includes such popular information channels as Euronews, and among entertainment channels we can highlight TV 1000;
- Not only satellite television, but also radio stations broadcast on the frequency 12245 R. This is convenient because no other transponder works with radio stations. Therefore, if the user wants to receive a high-quality radio signal, he must select only this frequency;
- On the frequency 12437 R the following channels are broadcast: Zhivi, RTR Planeta, Russian Bestseller, Sarafan, Strana, Arkhyz 24, Russian Roman;
- Frequency 12322 R regulates the operation of such channels as: Auto Plus, Cinema Club, TV India, TV Kitchen, A Minor TV, Men's Cinema, Nashe Kino, KVN TV, NTV-Plus Sports.
But as for other criteria, they are the same: DVB-S2 modulation, MPEG-4 8PSK standard, encoding - Viaccess, bit rate 27500 SR, FEC 3/4. Just let's figure out what they mean:
- SR is the flow rate, or more precisely, the density of information flow present in the satellite signal;
- FEC (Forvard Error Connection) - using this designation you can correct errors or restore the original data of the parcel;
- Viaccess – helps you access the list of paid channels. For the system to work, you must use the current version 5.0 or 6.0. Others are not suitable because they cause a lot of system glitches, which will negatively affect your experience while watching your favorite TV programs.
What satellites and TV program packages does NTV use for broadcasting?
For the Russian-speaking user, there is complete freedom, since many satellite television operators have appeared that offer not only high-quality, but also affordable content. One of the most popular operators, without a doubt, is NTV Plus. The number of channels is determined by a considerable number of satellites. Here are some of them:
- EUTELSAT 36A/36B (W4/W7). This is the first satellite that began to be used for broadcasting NTV television channels. It is located at 36°E east longitude and casts a signal to western Russia and part of Ukraine. It is not surprising that after connecting such a powerful device, the user audience has expanded significantly.
- A couple of years later, the Bonum-1 satellite joined the list of satellites, although at the moment it was renamed Express-AT1. It is also called NTV Plus East, since this satellite is broadcast to the Far East, Siberia and other parts of Russia, which are located in the eastern region;
Users will also be pleased with the fact that most of the channels are Russian-language. But it is possible to set up television in other languages. Almost all TV channels operate in Viaccess 2.5 encoding, but if you install a satellite dish of at least 0.6 m, you need to turn on the DRE 5000 receiver, which will decode this signal.
At the moment, NTV Plus offers people various channels that are part of thematic packages. Here are some of them and their costs:
- Basic package – 550 rubles.
- Extended basic package – 750 rubles
- Basic extended + sports + cinema + night – 1050 rubles.
- Basic + VIP cinema – 1050 rubles.
- Basic + cinema + night + supersport – 1550 rubles.
- Baz. race + night + VIP cinema + super sports – 1850 rubles.
As you can see, the prices are quite affordable, and thanks to satellites, every user, even those who live in a remote village where there are problems with mobile communications, can watch their favorite movie. NTV Plus will work everywhere in the same quality as in Moscow. So fans of sports, educational channels, movies and children's channels will be provided with high-quality and enjoyable content.
Manual tuning of NTV Plus channels
In order to manually find a specific channel, you need to know what frequency is used to broadcast it. In order to determine this, you will need a special table that indicates all the most important parameters that need to be entered into the receiver search menu. Here it is:

But before setting up channels, where the frequency table described above is used, the user will have to reset the settings. To do this, you need to enter the menu, then select the “Settings” section. After that, go to “Default Installation”, select “Channels”, as well as “Antenna”, selecting “Satellite Settings” in this section. The following procedure will follow:
- You must enter a password that consists of four zeros;
- Uncheck all the boxes except those on the satellites responsible for broadcasting NTV Plus in your region, that is, EutelsatW4 or Express-AT1. To perform this procedure, you can remove and reinsert the access card;
- Configure the transponder using the data indicated in the frequency table. But here are the general settings if you expect to be able to perform a semi-automatic search: 12130 R and Lnb levels (lower = 0; upper = 10750);
- Once you have chosen a transponder and made sure it is configured correctly, you can move on to more decisive steps. Specify the “Network Search” command. You may have to wait, but as soon as the procedure is over, you will be shown those channels whose parameters were entered and for which you paid the satellite operator.
In addition, it is important to understand that innovations are constantly being added to the list of channels, and therefore the parameters indicated in the table will change. Users are advised to ensure that the information is up to date. The above table was updated at the end of May 2017, so the information contained in it can now be safely used.
It seems that nothing is free in this world, including television.
BUT this is still not true!
TV pay never... and this is my opinion!
Free television has existed and will continue to exist. Advertisers both paid for the “free” television for viewers and continue to pay…
Your equipment is designed to receive... SAT free channels.
There are also quite a lot of paid channels on satellites, which can only be decoded if you enter into an agreement with the provider and receive a subscription card.
Until you do it - you don't owe anyone anything!
However... more about the Eutelsat W4 / W7 36°E satellite. and SAT free channels.
Located in an orbital position of 36 degrees east longitude, it consists of two satellites Eutelsat W4 and Eutelsat W7 36° east.
The Eutelsat W7 satellite was launched into orbit on November 24, 2009. to help the Eutelsat W4 satellite, which was launched on May 25, 2000. and is known to everyone who receives satellite channels from well-known satellite television operators NTV+ and Tricolor TV.
The satellite has gained enormous popularity among the entire Russian-speaking population of Europe due to the wide variety of television channels that can be received on a satellite dish with a diameter of only 60 cm.
Total from Eutelsat W4-W7 satellite 36° east. You can receive about 500 channels in Russian.
To receive satellite television channels from the Eutelsat W4 / W7 36° East satellite. in Ukraine and Russia, it is enough to have a satellite dish with a diameter of 60-90 cm.
Moreover, the closer to 36° east longitude you are, the smaller the diameter of the satellite dish you will need.

In this article we will look at installing and configuring a satellite dish on the Eutelsat 36A/36B satellite broadcasting from a position of 36°East (36 degrees east longitude). The most popular Russian television operators NTV+ and Tricolor broadcast from this satellite, and broadcast in circular polarization. To receive circular polarization, you need a special KU-band converter. They come in different designs and can have either one output or 2-16 outputs. The main thing is to carefully read the inscription on the label. On the circular polarization heads there is the inscription Circular LNB, Input Freq: 11.7-12.75 GHz, L.O. Freq 10.75GHz. Accordingly, the local oscillator frequency in the receiver settings should be set to 10750 MHz.
Unlike universal (dual-band) converters with linear polarization, converters with circular polarization have one range of 11.7 GHz -12.75 GHz.
Broadcasting television channels from a satellite is carried out using several transponders (receiver devices), different satellites have their own number. Each transponder (receiver) has its own frequency, polarization, modulation, data transfer rate and other parameters. Circular polarization can have either a right or left direction of oscillation, and depending on this, right and left circular polarization are distinguished. In most receivers, when setting transponder parameters such words as “right” and “left” polarization, you most likely will not find what to do in this case? When installing the right (R - right) polarization - in the receiver we select vertical (V - vertical), which corresponds to the converter supply voltage of 14 volts, and when installing the left (L - left) polarization - in the receiver we select horizontal (H - horisontal) , which corresponds to the converter supply voltage of 18 volts. Select the installation location and direction of the satellite dish:
In order to quickly install a satellite dish, you need to know the direction to our satellite. You can find out the direction using a compass, the sun, a GPS navigator, or small-diameter dishes located nearby. Since the signal from the Eutelsat 36A/36B satellite in the CIS countries is quite powerful, you can receive channels from this satellite even on small dishes (0.6m).
The fastest and most accurate direction to a satellite can be found using the program. This program will calculate the azimuth and elevation required for installing and configuring the dish to any available satellite at your geographic receiving point. You just need to specify your geographic coordinates of the installation location - northern latitude - "N", southern latitude - "S". Likewise, east longitude is "E", west longitude is "W". After entering the coordinates into the program, on the left side of the table you will receive the calculated azimuth and elevation angles (elevation angle) of the antenna.
Azimuth- this is the direction to the satellite (in degrees), defined as the angle between the directions north and the satellite, found according to the compass. Elevation angle- this direction, defined as the angle (in degrees) between the direction to the satellite and the plane of the earth at the receiving point, is determined using a program, measured using a protractor. A negative elevation angle means that the satellite is below the horizon and is not available for reception.
You can find out the coordinates of a place using the Yandex.Maps API service, or in any search engine, enter into the query: the coordinates of your location.
For example, let's calculate the Azimuth and Elevation Angle for the Eutelsat 36A/36B (36E) satellite, our conditional location is Moscow. As a result we get our Azimuth: 210.474°, Elevation Angle: 41.737°.
Knowing the azimuth, we use a compass to determine our antenna direction. Be sure to check that the direction to the satellite is free from high-rise buildings, trees and other obstacles.
We also first need to set the Elevation Angle; the wonderful “Satellite Antenna Alignment” program will also help us with this. Since during installation we will use an offset antenna, it already has a certain elevation angle (within 20-25 degrees). All you need to do is measure and enter the dimensions of your offset antenna (height and width) and the program will calculate the exact elevation angle for this antenna. The calculation is made only for antennas whose height is greater than their width. The antenna dimensions are entered in millimeters in the "Offset antenna" tab. The elevation angle and the angle at which you actually need to install the antenna will also be shown.
So, we have decided on the installation location and the angle of inclination of the antenna; now we need to firmly and securely mount our bracket on the wall of a building, the roof of a high-rise building or a mast. If we are installing the antenna on the wall of a building (this is the preferred option), then we first need to secure the bracket using fasteners, controlling the verticality of the bracket at the water level.
Preparing the antenna before tuning:
Before installing the antenna, it must be assembled and its geometry checked. First, we screw the arc to the mirror, then we install the fasteners to the bracket and install the circular polarization converter.
Satellite dish setup:
Before setting up the dish, you need to prepare equipment for setup: this can be either a special SatFinder device with pre-selected transponders, or a satellite receiver with a prepared set of transponders, a head local oscillator frequency set to 10750 MHz and a connected portable TV. We install the antenna on the bracket, set the azimuth using the compass (210° for Moscow), and use a protractor to set the inclination angle of the dish (105°). Using a piece of cable, we connect the receiver to the Eutelsat 36A/36B convector.
Tuning should begin with the strongest transponders and end with the weakest, achieving maximum readings on the quality scale. Let's go to Receiver menu -> Antenna installation -> Channel search -> Eutelsat 36.0E satellite,select any of the transponders listed in Table 1, and a scale should appear for visual control of the signal. Please note that for each brand of receiver, the satellite setting item may be located in a different location, and the setting scales are also different. It is convenient to have a receiver with a scale that expands to fill the entire screen for adjustment.
Table No. 1. Satellite antenna transponder parameters:
Satellite | Transponder | Visual inspection channel |
Eutelsat 36B/36C | 11900 R(V) 27500 | TV1000 Russkoe Kino, Viasat Sport East, EuroNews |
11977 R(V) 27500 | Moya Planeta, Nauka 2.0, Ru TV | |
12130 R(V) 27500 | Nat Geo Wild HD, Mezzo Live HD, Perviy kanal HD | |
12303 L(H) 27500 | Soyuz, TV2-TV |
By smoothly and slowly rotating the antenna in the horizontal direction, we scan the horizon with the antenna, after which we slightly change the vertical angle of the antenna and again repeat the horizontal scanning. All these actions must be performed slowly, constantly observing changes in the quality scale readings, until a signal appears. If a signal appears, you need to stop, slightly tighten the screws that fix the angles of rotation and tilt, and with light, insignificant movements up and down, left and right, achieve the maximum signal level on the scale. Then we firmly fix the screws securing the angle of inclination and the angle of rotation of the plate. Next, we proceed to fine-tune the converter, to do this we rotate it a little in the holder, you can also move it a little back and forth along the holder, while achieving maximum readings on the QUALITY scale.
VERY IMPORTANT POINT! We need to make sure that the antenna is tuned specifically to our satellite Eutelsat 36A/36B, and not to some other one. To do this, we scan the transponders from table 1 and turn on NTV Plus Infokanal, or another, then a picture should appear (if the channel is not encrypted). If the channels were not scanned or the wrong ones were scanned, then the antenna is configured for a different satellite, and the setup should be repeated. When everything is done, you need to tighten all the adjusting screws, focusing on the maximum signal scale readings. Let me remind you once again that the final adjustment should be made using weak transponders.
That's it, the antenna setup is complete, all that remains is to run the cable to the stationary TV, connect the tuner, scan all the transponders, sort the channels by topic and enjoy the picture quality.
Enjoy watching!
It seems that nothing is free in this world, including television.
BUT this is still not true!
TV pay never... and this is my opinion!
Free television has existed and will continue to exist. Advertisers both paid for the “free” television for viewers and continue to pay…
Your equipment is designed to receive... SAT free channels.
There are also quite a lot of paid channels on satellites, which can only be decoded if you enter into an agreement with the provider and receive a subscription card.
Until you do it - you don't owe anyone anything!
However... more about the Eutelsat W4 / W7 36°E satellite. and SAT free channels.
Located in an orbital position of 36 degrees east longitude, it consists of two satellites Eutelsat W4 and Eutelsat W7 36° east.
The Eutelsat W7 satellite was launched into orbit on November 24, 2009. to help the Eutelsat W4 satellite, which was launched on May 25, 2000. and is known to everyone who receives satellite channels from well-known satellite television operators NTV+ and Tricolor TV.
The satellite has gained enormous popularity among the entire Russian-speaking population of Europe due to the wide variety of television channels that can be received on a satellite dish with a diameter of only 60 cm.
Total from Eutelsat W4-W7 satellite 36° east. You can receive about 500 channels in Russian.
To receive satellite television channels from the Eutelsat W4 / W7 36° East satellite. in Ukraine and Russia, it is enough to have a satellite dish with a diameter of 60-90 cm.
Moreover, the closer to 36° east longitude you are, the smaller the diameter of the satellite dish you will need.
