    Aiming *Choice Elliptical Dish

    I was back at the club and turns out I had to do a factory reset. FOr some reason the receiver would not tune to anything other than 256. After the reste, I could get to 284, found the satelite, tuned to 299. Everything is happy in central Wisconsin. Well not quite. I bought the receiver...

    Aiming *Choice Elliptical Dish

    No luck. But perhaps it isn't the coordinates. As it stand right now, the only channel that can be tuned is 256 (and that comes up by default). I wasn't able to select 284 as you mentioned in your post. Maybe the reciever is in a wrong mode? Some misc info from the diagnostic pages...
