Invacom installation

[Rkey5]

With a Fortec Lifetime Ultra I installed the new QPH-031 in a 90cm Dish but is not working. The best I get for Telstar 5 (IA 5 ) 97º, is Level 55%, No quality. Well, I am a newbie, and I have questions. For example, To get IA5 97º, Does anyone knows:
Setting the receiver.
- What's the LNB Type of the QPH-031?
- I know where to point the dish, but Where can I find the steps to set properly rest of the system ?
About the LNB:
How to know if it working properly?

Thanks for your help.

The LO frequency will be 10750...but we cant give you the angles until we get zip/postal code
(everyone' sangles are different)

 

[rkrenicki]

also, make sure you are connected to a Linear port.. not a Circular port..

You wont be able to pick up IA5 with the Circular side.

Thank you, both of you. my location is 33014.
I played with the system a little bit and now is funny. I am pinting out to AMC 4 and I am receiving Level 87%, Quality 0%, but can you imagine that I am receiving also for Pas 1R Level 88%, Quality 0.
I don't understand, How come if AMC 4 is 101º and Pas 1R is 47º How come they are giving me the same reading?

Remember signal srength means NOTHING all you are interested in is QUALITY!

If you think you are on (or near) a satellite try a blind scan!

 

[Mr Tony]

the higher the signal means you are near a satellite...dont know which one but I noticed when I move from one to another satellite, the signal goes from 70-74 when it passes a satellite

 

[Rkey5]

Hey! Thank you for your comments.
I follow what you said, both of you, and I did the power scan with Level around 88% and no quality, and power scan started to bring the transponders from AMC 4.
To both of you, THANKS!!!!!!.

To the rest who are just reading these posts, If you have any question don't think twice to ask in this forum.
