Hi Guys,
I just purchased a DTV multi satellite system with elliptical dish and triple LNB. . I had a single round dish up previously. My buddy and I tried to align the dish to pick up all 3 satellites for local broadcasts, but cannot get a signal from satellite "B".
We have 91% on A & C and nothing for B. Is there a trick or tool for getting this lined up or do I just keep pulling out my hair?? :eek:
Any advice would be more than welcome

Thanks,
The Dad
 
Presuming you have selected the 3 SAT option on your receiver, you either have an obstruction blocking the 119 location, a cabling problem, or a problem with your LNBF or receiver. I would troubleshoot in that order.

I'll give that a shot and let you know how I make out. Probably trees for the "B" satellite.

Thanks
