Thanks, I am back up and running. It was all in how it wasn't aligned well.

Thanks. Another question or two if you don't mind With the 4 outputs, it doesn't matter which output I connect correct? With the 18LNB... should it work with without the BBC converter? (I only ask because it's smaller and easier to transport, and HD is not that important). When using the...

Use Multiswitch with the 18LNBR1-01? What is the Power Inserter? I am not familiar with those?

Also, I saw this post from a few years back The pig lnb is legacy ka/ku, not swm, so i would also recommend changing the setup to ka/ku or sl3 in settings. You do indeed need the bbc for this setup. No swm. Assuming your lnb part number is correct. Are you sure the dish is peaked correctly as...

How did you resolve the problem?

The LNB is the part at the end of arm on the Dish that has 4 cables coming off of it correct? As far as I can tell it doesn't look damaged. I wonder if something went bad with it. I did check 3 of the 4 cables and none of them worked. I should have checked the 4th, but admittedly I was...

Also if it's something with the receiver would I get a different error than 771 - Signal Strength I will try again to see if I can get it to work as well

I have been trying tonight in the drive way. When using the SL3PIG what satellite choice should I use? I swear it was a slimline 13 (which is what it says on the dish) but that's not an option. The only option is SL3 I have tried multiple cables, so I don't think its the cable. I just...

I have been tailgating since the beginning of football season with the following setup: SL3PIG-WNC with an H24 Receiver and BBC for HD. The last game we watched TV before the game, and then after the game, we came back out to the truck and the satellite signal couldn't be found. I have used...

I'm in a similar setup and I keep getting the even for 101 checked but the odd keeps showing up as an X any ideas why?

Thanks... I will try that tomorrow at the tailgate. I seem to be able to find satellite 101 with ease, but I can't get the other satellites over 40%. But we have been using SD for years, so we will go that route as a backup

Also, I chose the Dish Type as Slim Line 3 and the Switch Type as Multiswitch. Is that correct with this setup?

Is there anywhere with a good tutorial / help video about the Direct TV Satellite Alignment for HD. I am in Greenville, SC, and from what the guy on the phone told me, Satellite 101 should be the main one that I need for most of my channels. I am using this to tailgate, so ESPN / Fox Sports /...

Thanks for all of the help guys

Maybe a dumb question but what exactly is a SWM LNB? My SL3 does have the 4 coax lines, but I have always just plugged one in and used it for non-HD. With HD, I assumed I take that same line, connect a B Band Converted, and then plug in the box. Then I understand you have to find multiple...
