    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    I got it working, finally! Now I need to buy an HD receiver and set up with the card. Will the H25 receiver work with the dish?

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    Here's a closer picture. I'm also not sure if the white cable can support an HD signal, but I've been using the cable on the left and have been getting zero for all signals. I'll maybe try taking these out and hooking the cable directly from the dish to the receiver. I would think I should be...

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    I just talked to a place and they've never heard about any testing for LNB's. He said I should call directv and see if they know anything about that. He also said they're impossible to set up without an $800 meter. I do have a thing that I put in between the cables to make them longer that...

    How do I know if the cable is bad? The cable worked for standard def fine, would it be fine for HD as well? Is there an easy way of testing the lnb or do I need to take it in?

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    I've got all zero's with the 101 satellite. Would that have to do with not having a BBC or do I just have it aimed wrong. I ordered a BBC so it should get here within a couple of days.

    I know his receiver works because I disconnected it at his place. For some reason he doesn't need that bbc thing. Maybe he's got a different dish.

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    The receiver I'm using is my friends. I just want to see if I can get it to work. Then I'll order an extra receiver with a card. I just want to make sure I can get it to work first. Is that bbc converter available anywhere else online other than directv?

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    I'm trying to set this up at a vacation home and I don't feel like doubling my monthly bill so I'd prefer to do it on my own. So I just connect this bbc thing to the coax coming from the dish? Do I need one for each tv? Would it show all zeros if I don't have this as far as signal strength goes?

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    Im not using an Swm setup or a DVr Is this dish made only for a DVr? What is bbc in line? Do I need one of these for just a receiver and not a DVr?

    If the receiver says SWM1 on the back where the satellite in is located, does that mean I should select SWM? Or do I need to buy this BBC tuner?What is a bbc tuner? The b band converter?

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    I'm using the receiver H21-200hd. Also is there a way to test the LNB's to see if the dish is actually working. I'm getting zero signal on 101 satellite.

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    Now I'm getting no SWM detected. What does that mean? I'm using a box that says satellite in swm-1. I'm assuming that means I have an SWM? Do I need to select multiswitch instead? I think I've got the satellite pointed in the right direct according to the zip code I entered. I also know my...

    Well I've been using a compass. I can now use a compass with the app, if that's easier.

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    I got that app and bought a couple braces to hold the dish better. I hope to not have to buy a signal meter. So do I just hold the app rigt next to the satellite arm and try to aim it to the 101 satellite?

    Trying to set up slimline HD dish on my own

    There are four cable connections. If can get a standad def reciever does that mean I should be able to get a hd receiver to work? The reason I ask is there are a few trees.
