hello everyone,
I finally got my first 10' mesh dish,it has a chapperel c band only feedhorn on it. I got it for free (I had to dig it up and break the concrete off the pole but but that's a fair trade!). anyway, I set it up in my back yard ,bought a cheap reciever of fleabay(nextwave 500) and after days of trial and error and hours on the internet I got it to recieve a picture. the problem is the picture only comes in when I adjust skew fine tune. when I stop after a few seconds the picture goes away and I only see a slight ghost image roll across the screen.I admit I know very little but hope to change that.I also have sparkles in the picture,this dish sat in this guys yard for years, could the lnb be shot?.any suggestions? thanks,Ken
