    The satellite television operator MTS appeared quite recently, but is already loved by subscribers due to the low cost of connection, a large list of programs and inexpensive subscriber services. But the stability and reliability of the system depends largely on high-quality installation and qualified configuration.

    Visibility in a south-eastern direction and a clear horizon are the main conditions for connecting an MTS television set.

    The channels are supplied from the ABS 2 satellite, hovering at 75 degrees East longitude. To view programs you will need:

    • Antenna size 60-90cm.
    • Linear converter.
    • Coaxial cable.
    • Connectors.

    Moscow and the Moscow region are in the zone confident reception satellite Standard size antenna is 60cm. By increasing the dish to 80-90cm, it will be possible to achieve stable signal reception in bad weather conditions: snowfall, rain, cloudiness. The section "Coverage map" presents the signal distribution throughout the Russian Federation and indicates the reception power in each region. The map will help you choose the plate size.

    We will divide the installation and configuration procedure of MTS TV into several stages.

    Stage 1. Determining the direction of the signal

    The procedure can be performed using a compass or a program from the Internet. DISHPOINTER is suitable for a PC; for a phone you can use SATFINDER program(you can find it on Play Market or App Store). The operating algorithm is as follows: enter the address of the installation location, select the name of the satellite (ABS 2 75EAST) and using the colored arrow the signal from the satellite will be shown relative to the connection location.

    If we choose a compass, then we focus on the southeast. The program shows a more accurate signal direction superimposed on a map of the area. Depending on the direction of the signal beam, the antenna can be installed either from a building window or on the roof. Tall buildings and trees located at the level of the dish can interfere with the reception path. You can also navigate by the sun: around 10 o’clock in the afternoon it shines in the direction of the satellite.

    Attention! Only a specialist, after visiting and measuring the signal, guarantees satellite reception! The cost of the service is 1000 ₽.

    For independent measurements we use satellite set-top box, where there is a scale of level and quality of reception.

    Stage 2. Assembly and installation of the satellite system.

    We assemble the plate and install the converter on it, strictly following the attached instructions. We attach the bracket to the vertical wall of the facade or the roof of the building. Installation to brick and concrete surfaces is carried out using M10 anchor bolts, to wooden surfaces - 10mm screw caps. When there are voids in the wall, a through hole is drilled and studs are installed.

    The antenna is mounted on a securely fastened bracket so that the dish is difficult to rotate on the support. We measure the required length of the cable, strip it as in the photo, and install the connectors. We pay careful attention to the cable braid: it should not come into contact with the central core.

    We align the antenna in the direction of the satellite (use the program) or in azimuth (direction to the satellite in the horizontal plane) and elevation (the angle between the horizon line and the direction to the satellite in the vertical plane). Data for the Moscow region: azimuth: 137.3°, elevation angle: 18.3°. We find information for your region on the GEONAMES map.


    Stage 3. Setting up the antenna for the satellite

    This operation can be done using a sat finder or receiver. Recommended MTS receivers have a signal level and quality scale set to required frequencies. Channels can also be received on non-recommended devices, but then it is better to configure the set-top box in advance. This can be done when purchasing a system in a store, or from neighbors who have a working MTS dish.

    Manual setting performed using the following data:

    • Satellite ABS 2 75 EAST
    • Feed settings: upper local oscillator 10600 MHz, lower 9750 MHz.
    • Transponder: 11800 V, flow rate 45000, error correction 2/3. (see list of MTS frequencies)
    • Network search- included. This will help you find the entire list of programs.

    We enter the settings menu, two scales appear in front of us: level and quality of reception. Stable job satellite is possible with the maximum filling of the scales, which should not be lower than 70%.

    The procedure for setting up an MTS TV dish to a satellite

    • We point the antenna at the area where the satellite is located (we are guided by azimuth and elevation, according to the signal direction program).
    • We tilt the plate below the horizon by -8°.
    • We set up the converter: if you look at the feed from the antenna side, then with a positive value we turn it clockwise, with a negative value counterclockwise, to the -22° mark.
    • Slowly turn the antenna 1-2mm, wait a couple of seconds, look at the signal scales on the screen; repeat the operation until the scales begin to fill.
    • We achieve at least 70% completion of the scales.
    • Fix the plate, tighten the bolts Call an MTS setup specialist

    If you were unable to set up the equipment yourself or there were breakdowns in the already connected antenna, we recommend using the services of MTS television repair and installation specialists.

    Call an MTS setup wizard

    If you were unable to set up the equipment yourself or there were breakdowns in the already connected antenna, use the services of MTS television repair and installation specialists.

    The functioning of satellite television is carried out through signal exchange between the receiver and the satellite. This is done using special technical and software components. MTS satellite TV frequencies are assigned individually to each television channel, which is necessary for broadcasting.

    The search can be carried out automatically and manual mode. Considering the first option, the system will do everything for you. The user only needs to select the appropriate option in the system menu. With the manual option, everything is much more complicated: here the client independently specifies the parameters of each channel in the dialog box.

    In this material we will look at:

    1. basic parameters of the operator's satellite;
    2. indicated transponder frequencies to receive best quality images.

    Mobile TeleSystems relatively recently began providing services in the satellite television market. This made it possible to take into account all the shortcomings of their competitors, which also applies to the choice of satellite. Good zone coatings and high level The signal is provided by ABS-2, which also has impressive parameters:

    • full name of the device 75.0E ABS 2 MTS TV;
    • the position is fixed at 75 degrees east longitude;
    • polarization type – linear vertical;
    • The symbol exchange rate reaches from 43 to 45 Msym/second.

    The above parameters allow not only to achieve high speed response, but also more than 90% coverage of the territory of Russia. This factor is complemented by the popularization of interactive technologies and modern receivers, which significantly expand the possibilities of using basic set-top box and represent a new generation of development of such devices. Broadcast quality in most cases reaches up to 1080p. Work is underway on Ultra HD resolution in test mode, content coming soon high quality will be publicly available.

    Since the functionality of the system is provided by one satellite, MTS satellite TV frequencies for 2019 are formed exactly for each of the transponder models. Let's consider this question in the next section.

    Satellite TV MTS: transponder frequencies

    A transponder is a special device that receives, decodes and sends a signal to a satellite. Various models are issued for a specific telecommunications operator and can read information various channels. This information You must first check with a qualified service specialist technical support operator, which will allow you to use television services as efficiently as possible.

    Before adding a TV channel, you need to make sure that your receiver supports this type of encryption. Thus, MPEG-4 Irdeto Verimatrix is ​​the main protocol for MTS. Hevc/uhd will not function on outdated equipment, as it is responsible for ultra-high quality channels. To search for a channel, you will need to specify a unique LED and VPID. Although cable TV also needs to indicate broadcast frequencies, they have nothing to do with the satellite option.

    A complete list of MTS TV satellite broadcasting frequencies can be obtained on the corresponding page of the technical section of the official website, which will allow you to obtain up-to-date information at the time of contact.

    High technologies are advancing by leaps and bounds, and denying yourself some innovative benefits is stupid, even if you plan to spend your leisure time somewhere in the quiet of a country house (and in most cases, in the wilderness). a wooden house will hardly surprise anyone, so connoisseurs of quality TV just have to decide on the provider that will serve your “dish.”

    In the market for this type of service, there is a serious struggle for each client, which allows the ordinary user to make his (albeit poor) choice in favor of one or another service provider. MTS satellite TV channels were among the first to start operating, which gave a significant advantage over other participants " big three" Moreover, in addition to regular viewing television channels, the subscriber has access to a considerable range of functionalities.

    Let's try to figure out what MTS satellite TV is: tariffs, functionality, services, prices and reviews ordinary users along with expert opinions.

    Coating

    Television broadcasting occurs due to a spacecraft in near orbit (ABS-2 satellite). The point where the device is located is located approximately over the center of Eurasia, which makes satellite television channels available throughout almost the entire territory of Russia - from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok. This is one of the significant advantages of the company, while other market participants have devices shifted to the eastern or western part of the continent, which do not allow reliable signal reception in some regions.

    Interactivity

    One of the main advantages that MTS satellite TV has (user reviews mention this advantage more than once) is interactivity. This is the first time such a service has been offered on the TV market by the company: “smart” set-top boxes are used to receive the signal, which combine support for several services (satellite, mobile and fixed-line communications).

    A convenient proprietary interface from MTS allows you to control the interactive program guide directly from the TV screen, see exchange rates, read news feeds and even get information about traffic jams in your city.

    Moreover, all the additional features that are included in MTS are very well developed. For example, the weather widget, popular with many users, is displayed as a small insert on the screen, but if you need detailed review, you can get detailed information a week ahead. It is possible to customize the widget specifically to your needs and requirements: cloudiness, precipitation, wind, pressure, humidity, sunset and sunrise times, etc.

    You can configure other services in the same way. For example, it is possible to assemble a news widget by category and importance of events, and view currency exchange rate changes in real time on a dynamic chart. And this is only a small part of the advantages for which owners have already fallen in love with MTS satellite TV. User reviews about the interactive capabilities of the console are extremely positive, so there is simply nothing to complain about on this point.

    Functionality

    It is also worth noting the expanded functionality that is available during television broadcasts. In addition to the standard assistant (which is broadcast in at the moment and after), the service additionally helps the user navigate channel names, genres, find something using keywords, etc. If you are interested in a specific topic, you can create your own playlist on all channels using keywords in advance (Settings satellite channels-> Lists -> Add to playlist -> Search by keyword), which is very convenient.

    Another convenient and extremely useful feature- sorting programs by time and topic. You can also find out details about the films being broadcast: cast, release date, budget, number of Oscars, etc. That is, satellite channels will be tuned according to your filters. You can group broadcasts alphabetically or display channels only with the participation of an actor.

    It is also possible to set a reminder about your favorite show. Moreover, the response will not only be on your TV, but will also come in the form short message to your phone or email, that is, according to contacts specified by the user. This is an extremely useful feature that MTS satellite TV provides for free. Reviews about the reminder service are not always positive: some subscribers sometimes complain about late messages, but we hope that the company will correct this service in the future.

    Parental Controls

    Extremely important function if there are children in your home. The service limits the display of TV programs in accordance with the established censor, and the category of channels is determined by automatic mode. If desired, you can protect all channels undesirable for children with a PIN code.

    In order to get all the features that the service provides " Parental Controls", authorization is required in personal account and subsequent setting of filters for viewing. There is also an additional SMS interface that allows you to work with the service via phone.

    OTT service

    This functionality deserves special mention. Using the “Povtor-TV” service, the user can easily watch archived films and TV shows that were previously broadcast. You can also pause or rewind the live broadcast, but for this you will need external storage like a flash drive or external hard drive, which can be connected via a USB connector, having previously configured MTS satellite TV for this service.
