Hi All,
New member here.
Been a BUD owner since 1991.
When building my home theater I disconnected by BUD in order to move it there when I finished.
Now that I'm finished...3 years later, I'm trying to get my system up and running.
I had some initial problems with my satellite dish movement, but after rechecking the wires on the back of the receiver I solved that problem.
Unfortunately I had to do a master reset, so I lost my satellite "maps". I now have the originals that came with my 4DTV receiver in 1999. In spite of this I was able to find CSPAN on AMC-11 (C3) and NBC shopping channel on G5, but have been unable to find The Shepherds Chapel on Galaxy-16 (G4) or anything farther east. Whats the secret ? I slowly move the dish across the arc looking for any sign of a channel but see nothing.
I'm trying to locate these satellites in order to use my FTA receiver which is an old Fortec Star 786 NA, which I'll be replacing soon anyway.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
