    1000.4 dish pointing.

    So could that be my problem?? Does the receiver differentiate between different dishes?? I knew I had to change settings in DTV according to which LNB's I was using.

    1000.4 dish pointing.

    Sorry it took me so long to get back to you I had to break the 1000.4 dish down and put the 1000.2 dish back up before it it was completely dark. Where do you go to look to see if the 1000.2 dish is still the one in the lineup. I searched everywhere. Here are the pictures I got when I ran a...

    1000.4 dish pointing.

    Here is a picture of my check switch screen. I definitely have a clear LOS. I may have to give up for the day I am running out of day light here.

    1000.4 dish pointing.

    Been at it since noon and it's the same story. When I'm on satellite 119 it says it's 110. That's with the new numbers from dishpointer.com and the old numbers from the receiver and everything in between and even outside of those numbers. I CAN NOT hit the right satellite for some reason and I...

    Thank you very much for the pointers, dishcomm. I am going to attempt to try again this weekend to get the 1000.4 dish aimed and will try your tips.

    1000.4 dish pointing.

    The numbers on dishpointer.com are: azimuth = 237 elevation = 28.6 skew = 132.4 a little different than what the receiver gives me "receiver numbers are: azimuth = 242 elevation = 32 skew = 130" maybe this is my problem. I will give these numbers a try, the next time I get a chance...

    Jimmerinwi - I am using the mounting pole that came with the dish, it is mounted to the side of the house. I've checked several times and it's plumb. papalittle - I will give that a try. Thanks for the tips fellas. :)

    1000.4 dish pointing.

    The receiver numbers are: azimuth = 242 elevation = 32 skew = 130 with my zip code entered in it. Those are the numbers I am using with the 1000.2 dish. I set the 1000.4 dish to the same numbers and can't hit a signal. I messed around with all those settings on Sunday trying to get the...

    1000.4 dish pointing.

    Thanks for the reply. I have a 1000.2 dish up right now and I'm getting low 70's on 110 & 119 and mid to low 50's on 129. The first bit of clouds and 129 is gone. Rain and clouds and everything is gone. Right now I have no TV because it is raining. I could watch HD stations thru a hard rain...

    1000.4 dish pointing.

    Is it really hard to point a 1000.4 dish on the east cost of NC?? I tried for 8 hours Sunday to aim a 1000.4 dish and the only thing I could get was a signal on satellite 119 but it said it was the wrong satellite, it said it was 110. I've aimed many DirecTV dishes and never had a problem like...
