Ok, I'll try and be concise. Buddy and I were installing his new AT9. I've done two others with no problems. His jumper cables broke between the LNBs. He doesn't have an HD Television yet, so we just decided to aim for the 101 to get the SD channels and complete the aiming in the spring when he gets an HD TV. (we still set it up for the 5lnb dish in the receiver menu.) We peaked the signal and he was getting 95s or more on all transponders for 101.
After I left he got a message saying his receiver was 'downloading new software'. It froze on him and he reset it. It finally downloaded the software on the next attempt, but now he is not getting channels and the signal strength is 0's and 60s on the 101. What gives? We don't need the jumper cables attached do we? It doesn't matter that we have it set for the 5lnb in the receiver setup does it? Why would he go from 95s to 60s or 0s? It isn't weather. It isn't moisture. ???? Please help!!!
