It is there, but weaker than MeTV transponder. You need an S/N of 7.9 to lock MeTV, but over 9.4 to lock Folk TV because of the higher FEC rate.

What is your dish size? Which receiver? Do you get the other channels like Faith, V Me, Zee News?

On my zgemma, after locking the mux, it takes about 10 seconds for picture to appear. This is a funny mux, but Folk Tv does work.
