    Anyone know what's up with Orby?

    If you think about it as in how much money could be saved and made by using HEVC that would free up Transponders to lease out and make money in turn could lead to lowering their customers bill. Sure they have to spend money to make money. I know they made enough money off receiver fees over the...

    Anyone know what's up with Orby?

    The service is using Hevc and is only leasing two transponders so that should of kept the operating cost down but with Globecast handling the uplink and all how much do they charge for their services. Probably a lot. Dish or direct would be able to do the uplink them selves. It's about time they...

    Best signal strength?

    Don't have the BT meter but your signal on the tv is higher than I have here in central FL using a converted slimline. I got SS 83 SM 75. If a heavy cloud rolls over even with 100 signal will be lost. That's linear KU band for you. At least if locals are available can watch those until heavy...

    Orby frustration please help!

    38.80 is so close to 39 on scale should be able to get signal. If clouds are in the SW sky yes wait for clear skies.Clouds could stop you from finding signal. The satellite is high in the sky close to where the sun is today at this time of day in florida.

    Orby frustration please help!

    He used that edge I marked in red in the photo to set 39 elevation? Pole is plumb and skew and elevation close and some patience should find the signal in the SW sky.

    Orby frustration please help!

    If you can post a few photos of the dish 1 standing in front of the dish and 1 of the elevation scale on the dish mount. That way we can let you know if the dish skew is correct and elevation settings look correct.

    Orby frustration please help!

    Those elevation and skew numbers should be good for finding the signal. Yes step six is the screen with meter. When you get signal will hear a loud tone.

    Orby frustration please help!

    If your signal screen on the tv doesn't show movement/sound then do a factory reset or reset system. Look in the Advace Setting menu all the way at the bottom the pin code is 1234.
