Can't find 101

If you don't have the protection plan I'm pretty sure a service call is only $50. I'm not sure if this would cover the cost of a new LNB if that's what you need. Just a thought.

Slimline 5LNB uses the larger LNB to pick up 99, 101, and 103. The two side LNBs are for 110 and 119.

Make sure the mast is plumb and that the skew is set for your location.

+ The very common error is to count the horns and come up with three. Do not select the three LNB (Phase III) dish. The 5LNB slimline Ka/Ku is the correct dish to select.

Remove & Inspect all four cables coming out of the Slimline dish. Check for any fraying or cracking; also check the female/male connectors for broken off copper or anything foreign in the female side. If anything appears "bad" cut both connectors & install new compression connectors at the source. The 101 is truly the easiest bird to find on a plumn level; so easy you can usually just spin the mount around & find it. After all this, do your movements slow & wait for the signal to reach your meter/TV before moving it. Why do these things always seem to go down in winter time during a snow storm?

I'd be looking for condensation on the West side of the big lens.

If you have any spare BBCs, I'd be trying those. 103W is stacked with 110W and 119W while 99W and 101W are stacked together.
