Thanks for the info, very nice pictures btw. I don't think those specs will help me much as I'm in the eastern part of canada. But if your getting good signal strengths in la I should have no problem here. But not working quite right at the moment.

Do you mind me asking what you have the skew set to?

What size dish are you using? And is it the 1000.4 eastern arc dish?

Is anyone having success tuning in with a super buddy meter? Im assuming that if my skew is correct, and I have signal on one of the satellites, the others should be there. Also it shouldn't matter what port of the dpp LNb I have hooked up to the meter should it as they all should be carrying...

Hey Guys, I'm a newbie on this site, but hoping to get some help. I am in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and helping a friend get his dish eastern arc satellite tuned in and having some issues. I am using a super buddy meter, which I assume should work as it has the settings for the dish 1000.4 system...
