As mentioned above, I am using an HR22. I have also plugged the PI in before plugging in the receiver. I do have a 4-output LNB on the way. It is actually what I wanted originally as I have a SWM8 that I want to hook up so I can do away with my old antenna and still run legacy devices. It...

This was somewhat mentioned in a previous thread but I wanted to address this in its own thread to try and get a response. I finally got my ASL-1 today. This weekend I am going to use it to re-tune my antenna (SWM LNB). Not fully understanding how this all works I wanted to ask this. If I am...

Has anybody experienced not receiving SWM signals but you do receive regular signals?

Kinda interesting that it doesn't seem to pick up the SWM signal yet it picks up the standard signal. I wonder why that would be?

I may as well ask this now since I am fairly certain that this is going to happen tomorrow based on my previous experience. Say I hook up the SWM LNB with the PI going thru the DC passing port on my SWS-4 splitter and check the output on the non-power passing port with my Acutrac 22 Pro. If I...

Alright, let me backtrack a bit. It looks like I didn't have a cable connected properly with my old 3-LNB. I connected it properly and now I am getting signal strengths of 1 ea @ 96, 6 ea @ 97, 7ea @98, 4ea @99 and the rest at 100 except for transponders 4, 18 and 28 which are 0 (all this on...

Here is my problem right now. I am trying to use the HR22 using the old Ka/Ku 3 LNB with the new slimline dish. The problem I am having is that to set up the dish they give my 18 different selections. Some of them are obvious to not use, but I do not know which one would be the right one to...

Looking back on it, I don't think I ever answered your question randyk47. To align the dish I used the old Ka/Ku LNB borrowed from my original setup. I also used an R10 to power my Acutrac 22 Pro. I was just curious as to whether or not I could use the old LNB on the new HR22. I am on the West...

I picked up from Home Depot my Datashark Model 70014 compression crimper a few years ago for about $20 and then a 10 pk of connectors for about $10. I forget what the stripper cost but it wasn't much. I have never been happier than when I bought the crimper. I have used it many times, including...

Sounds like my wife :D

My Acutrac came with a pouch with a belt clip, did yours or is it a different type of pouch you are looking for? Do you have a specific type of inclinometer you have to get? I picked up one from Lowes with a magnetic base. It is the Swanson Magnetic Angle Finder.

Yes, I am plugging it into Port 1 and I am not using the BBC. The screen even tells me not to use it. mental1, I will try that after I check everything out. Do you think that will actually work? Why would it not see them upon powering up as opposed to resetting it after powering it up?

I haven't installed the receiver yet. I have just been plugging it in as I need it to test the signal so yeah, everything has been unplugged for some time before I start powering them up. After the rain is gone, probably Sunday, I will install my old Ka/Ku LNB and hook it up to the receiver...

I thought I should move this to a new thread instead of my original one . Well, not sure what is going on. As I mentioned, I used my triple LNB (Ka/Ku) from my old antenna and got everything aligned. Solid signals on the meter, all in the range of 91-93. I tightened everything down while...
