Help with older reciever and satellite signal issues

[ptrill]

I have an issue, and hope someone out there can help.....

I am installing an old "mulit satellite" dish on a hunting cabin, using an SD-HBH reciever......

I can not get all the signals strong, Here is the best I can come up with, any suggestions??????



How can some transponders be at 100 and others at 0? Hardware problem or aiming???

to Satelliteguys!

It looks like you have either a bad lnb or a bad cable. Some of the numbers on 119 should be low since they are spot beams not pointed in your direction.

you have the dish pointed fine.
you either have a bad LNB, bad cable or the receiver tuner is toast.

Do you have a clear Line of Site? Branches can cause that too.

Bring the receiver outside and attach it directly to the LNB. Bring a spare receiver from home and test it.

However some transponders are supposed to be at 0 because they are spot beams.
