You are correct, I did not see a signal on the receiver, I aimed the dish to the bird with the inline meter and did a blind scan then I knew what bird I was aimed at

when my inline meter pegged out I couldn't see anything on the stb until I did a blind scan

Thanks guys,, I will have to check into a new lnb , and yes I am sure I will want a new STB soon too, lol I have been watching FTA for a few days now and I am really impressed with the picture quality. It is better than my cable provider which btw has been cutting out alot like my old...

You'll probably end up buying another receiver too and this can open up a whole new world of feed hunting especially if it's a HD stb and it does S2 besides. At this time your hardware is limiting your potential. As for another C-lnb, there may be plenty to choose from but not all C/Ku lnb's...

Ok, Then I guess I should buy a gbox and LNB

Thank you all for all the help getting me going, in the right direction, I have found many different things to watch from east to west , The servo doesn't seam to be working on V and when I do blindscans I end up with alot of Ku Tp' as well as C Tp's is that normal? My thinking is since I...

I had a missing piece of mesh in mine and I used 1/4 hardware cloth and seams to be working fine. This is all new to me, but I am finding a lot of different satellites

I played with the skew, searched from east to west, now I remember what is was like to find new things to watch.

that was just this morning when before I changed the TP to the ones you posted I did a blind scan and looks like I am picking up G17 unless it is saying G17 because that is what I told it to scan !! down freq 4093 symbol rate 14.028 I have 6 channels only one picking up video and audio it...

Ok I will try to get back on the roof when the sun goes down. I did a blind scan before I knew I had the wrong settings and it came up with 14 channels half of them had noise and all had some kind of scrambled looking mess . I erassed all of them and set the correct Tp and nothing yet

I will turn off the switch. should I set the tp to the list in the " I need a strong transponder thread " 91 (G17 AKA G11)-12050 V 13350

I only took it to south to take a measurement I figured that there was nothing near my true south active right now . that's why I have been trying galaxy 18 .

Nope, I just read someplace that it should be on, Should it be off?

Yes that is one of the places I have been reading. My Lat is 27 20'23.35"N Long 82 30'18.91"W My Pansat 2500 for 123 Galaxy 18 LNB type: Standard LNB local Freq : 5150 22kHz : on Diseqc : off Legacy SW : none Skew : 51 Tp : 3920 V 26.470 Positioner Setting : USALS Satellite Scan : All you...

Then this picture would be the Elevation ? it was correct at 62.5 the measurement in the last post was 32 . I unhooked it for today I will play with it again tomorrow.

would this be the Elevation ? I can see inside the feedhorn and looks like an S hook inside, depends on where the dish is pointed. when i took this picture facing 180 Az it looks like its between th 11 and 12 position .

a few days ago I was trying to find a satellite when I put the pansat on a vertical tp the servo kept moving from 12 to 4 and back consistently, if I left it on a horizontal tp the servo stayed at the 12 position, Im not sure if the Horizontal or Vertical at the lnb are matching the...

Also when I wave my hand in front of the LNB the inline meter would go up and down, I took the inline meter back down on the ground and tried scanning for sats and the inline meter would go in and out but never over a 0% quality. I could peg the inline then back it off and keep doing that until...

nothing hooked up and signal strength 30% . put the inline meter up at the LNB and nothing, I bypassed the coax going through the tube and went straight to the LNB and now I get up to 88% level but still 0% quality,

McGuyver, If I have to make any adjustments to the Lnb, I used to own some scaffolding like the contractors use, with the economy as it is maybe I will be able to get some, I am not sure about the servo, but the last time I was trying to find a sat when I put the pansat on a vertical tp the...

Yes USS I did lube the actuator really well. I heard that about the Receiver too, but nobody ever said what the older lnb requires, I prob will add a new lnb later, but for now it would be nice to get lined up to a satellite. McGuyver do I really want to have a scaffolding under the back side...

I haven't changed anything .I have been using the motor to move it to try to find a satellite ,I cant find a signal!!. I can get to the back of it from the roof. I was just saying I wouldn't mind changing the LNB if I needed to. But I will definitely want to change it eventually. I will work...

McGuyver, Thanks for the reply . I read your PM's and your reply I would like to replace the LNB with the newer one, (I would certainly like to have multiple LNB's eventually) but from the way everyone is talking I will have a heck of a time lining it up because I have to be pointing to my...

Ok, I replaced the missing mesh, I have been using a battery charger for days now trying to get a signal, I had been trying to get 91 galaxy 17 I think it may be closer, but I tried 133 galaxy 15 today, I changed the TP settings to the ones in the list, I have an inline signal meter while I am...
