Recently purchased a motorhome that came with a winegard satellite dish. The LNB was missing so I used
one from neighbor who used to install direct TV. He gave me a DTV 32+. Took the box from the spare bedroom H-24-700 and plugged it in. Found out where the satellite is 47 degrees and 138 azimuth. I cannot get a signal. I am not sure of the compatibility of my components. I am not sure of the setting I need concerning what dish I am using. I added an extension to the cable from the roof cable to the dish, about 3 ft. a continuity check shows good. I am using a HDMI cable from the box to the tv.
I am using a digital readout sensor that came with the winegard to determine height, the azimuth I am turning the dish from the inside observing the dial and numbers. Going by my home dish was a starting point.
