I just installed the slimline 5 lnb but can't pick up any signal. I had my friend come over (who had installed his own) to help and no matter what we do we can't pick up any satellite. Usually by swinging it you can pick up something. Is it possible the lnb is faulty. He did notice that the screws on one of the lnb mounts were scratched up. Any suggestions and if it is the lnb where can I pick one up. Thanx
 
You had the tilt and elevation set very precisely, and the mount perfectly level, right? Swinging it around slowly works fine in one direction, azimuth, only. Everything else should be pre-set.
 
If the pole is plum 90 degrees, you set tilt and elev using the hr20 correctly and you cant swing it into the proper azimuth to get a picture Id guess it could be your lnb. Also, what dvr are you using? Is it a new HR20? Ive had a couple of HR20's with bad tuners out of the box.
