    Zero Quality Signal--Have tried everything I can

    I'm all for the "FTA for Dummies" idea...the best way to learn is to teach so I would love to be involved. In the mean time, did you get any measurements off the dish (without the motor)? Just wondering if you were able to establish roughly what the angle should be (a digital pic...

    Zero Quality Signal--Have tried everything I can

    I'm having the same problems, never have been able to get it completely lined up (had it for 3 years years now). It seems I can get 2 or 3 satellites and that's it. I think the most confusing (and problematic) issues are the markings on the brackets. I have spent untold hours trying to align...

    SG-2100 Motor Referencing

    Ok, so I did the manual move to "0" (I have a small mirror to verify) and held in the reset button on the motor, that DID take care of it. Now I can send it to REF and everything is happy. Now, if I could just get the alignment right I will be back in business... Thanks to all!

    SG-2100 Motor Referencing

    I have a Diseqc 1.2 (SG-2100) motor and am looking for info on the reference position. All the information I have tells me that it should move to the "0" position when told to go to the reference position....and I believe that it used to do just that. Now, when I reference it, it moves to...

    I did find the problem with my remote, unfortunately it involved re-soldering one of the pins on the ribbon cable going to the display panel in the box. But...problem found, and back in operation.

    I have the same problem...not recognizing the remote at all. * I have turned it off/on, and actually left it unplugged for a couple of days. * New batteries * Verified the remote was operating by viewing the LED through a digital camera (it is blinking!) But I seem to have other...
