    Very Strange Problem with signal

    I have the twin Legacy LNBF. The problem happens on all the channels. I updated the software. I think that the connectors are OK, since the signal strength (when it works) is above 120. I do have a connector in the line (where I can hook analog satellite finder). I do not know why the...

    Very Strange Problem with signal

    Hi: I have a strange problem. My signal strength (when it catches the bird 61.5W) is 122-124. However it loses signal every 10-15 minutes and the progress goes only to step 1 of 5 and signal comes back. It never completes all the steps. Driving crazy :confused: What is going on? :no

    Lost Signal 61.5W, Signal Bar Green....

    Thanks Folks! I mean 61.5w for dish network (Echostar 3 at 61.5). I was getting 109-112 signal strength before losing it. I have dual LNBs, 119w and 110w. I am using only 1 LNB and have no switch or other D500 or dish attached. I think I am going to go to kitchen and use the aluminum foil...

    Lost Signal 61.5W, Signal Bar Green....

    Hi Readers: I lost my dish 500 signal to 61.5W. I peaked the "signal/direction" using analog satellite finder several times, but still cannot lock the satellite. The receiver keeps on saying “acquiring satellite signal” (satellite default). When I go in menu to ……system...
