Thanks quert1515 I use the info to determine my true south sat and was able to get 89 to 90% on the level meter. But I am still getting 0 on the quality meter. I feel I am closing to finding the arc than when I first started. Any other tips?

You might need a bigger dish.
But I assume since the LNB is a Universal the receiver is also set up for Universal (9750/10600 LNB LO)Winegard 76cm dish, SG2100 motor, Sadoun dual KU LNB..... Directv Slimline SWM 3 LNB.... GeoSatPro 36" dish with Sadoun dual KU LNB... Coolsat 5000 on motorized.... Manhattan RS1933....Directv HR34 (yes the 5 tuner monster) GeoSatPro 200 to aim dishes.... few receivers not set up yet
Two 6 foot Fortec dish with GeoSatPro dual C-Band LNB "ghetto moved" to various C-Band satellites

Iceberg, the receiver is set to universal 2 because that is the lnb I am using. I am hoping that I would be able to use my dish to pick up some or any FTA reception. Please help.

it would need to be universal one (LNB LO 9750/10600) not universal 2 setting
