So.... I got an installer out here. The coordinates from Dishpointer AND the receiver were both wrong. I wasn't able to find anything because the tilt and elevation that I was using was wrong. The guy said he doesn't even pay attention to that stuff. He has a really nice signal tester and...

I have tried the coordinates from Dishpointer and the coordinates from the receiver guide.

Ha! I know. Maybe that came across the wrong way. I'm just baffled. Thanks for you help!

My receiver was working fine before I switched dishes, and it auto detects the correct dish so I know it is getting power. I don't think the receiver would pick up the proper dish if the LNB was bad??

We do get the same results. I was quoting true azimuth, not magnetic. But lets be realistic. If my other settings are accurate, I should get some hint of a signal at either azimuth setting. As it is, I am sweeping my azimuth trying to find a signal.

I am in New Orleans. Dishpointer tells me to use an elevation of 53.1 and an azimuth of 200.9, and I am aiming at 101W DIRECTV 4S | DIRECTV 9S | SES 1. I def don't have line of sight issues and it is a brand new dish.

the red mark is set to an elevation of 40. connections are good... the receiver detects the new dish. entirely new setup

Putting my zip code into the menu, gives me these settings- Azimuth: 215, Elevation: 40, Tilt: 60. Elevation and tilt are set correctly and then azimuth is set approximately. i pan from left to right and can not get a reading beyond 0...

My settings align with the coordinates that directv provides when I enter my zip code. These numbers are not the same as dishpointer.com, although I have tried those settings too

Ok, so holding down "info" brings up the detailed menu. It recognizes my dish, but I cannot get the slightest signal... I have the azimuth, elevation and tilt set to the values that the receiver provides, but when I pan the dish side to side I can't get it to register anything?????

When receiver powers up it goes to "receiving satellite info..." screen and stays at 0. The only setup menu that will come up is signal strength... which is 2 menus, the second one i described below. it has "signal 1" and "signal 2"

I have a r16-300 and I just installed a SWM (3 lnb) dish. I am trying to find the signal and I get nothing. The only menu that I can pull up has the "Tuner 1" and "Tuner 2" signal strength. This is how it was when my old dish had to send 2 cables to my DVR. From what I understand the...

I have another receiver (d12-700).... that's going to be a problem isn't it?

Great thanks! And as for the PI, should i plug it in by my equipment and take one of the existing 2 cables (old SAT required 2 cables for DVR) to send it to splitter?

Hello, I am replacing my old POS dish with a SWM (3 lnb) dish. My question is this: 1. Do i need to have the PI hooked up to aim it? 2. I saw some older information (2010) where people were having issues updating this receiver to allow SWM. My receiver has an input labeled "SWM" and I don't...
