Yes sir, thank God for that!!!

Thanks Mack! One of my friends that been helping me at times with this went out and bought a meter so hope to dial it in better as soon as he can make it over here.

Shawn, did exactly what you said........a few times and still only got the 110. Then when I took off the tin foil and reconnected the first LNB then ran the check switch one last time..............IT WORKED!!!!!! Signal is kinda weak but it works! Think my borrowed Birdog meter is not set...

Shawn, previously when I lowered and moved west I got nothing. In fact all I ever got was nothing except 110. I' will try this in the order you described tomorrow. Hopefully it will work?! Thanks, D

Anybody got any new ideas???

Yes but I forgot the brand. Doesn't tell wich sat though. Doing it through the tv doesn't help either.

We had measured 18+ volts coming from the reciever.

Yes, swapped out everything one at a time. Current set-up all brand new.

I believe so? What might you suggest??

It's raining so I'll have to wait to get the photo requested. We had moved the location previously with no better results. Any other ideas out there???

If that'll help.......I'll take one tomorrow!

Any new thoughts on something that might help me? Appreciate all input! Thanks!!

All parts of this puzzle are brand new only a few weeks old. So far I haven't been able to get anything but 110 even with the meter attached to port #1 and the middle LNB covered w/two layers of foil. Only difference was the strength of signal. 63 when it's covered and 73 when it's not. I keep...

I agree Stardust, but moving the dish at it's current location or 30ft east and 20ft north w/plumb mast made no difference. just 110. Different dishes, different recievers, different cable. Same now matter what we've tried. The people helping have installed plenty and they are baffled. Been...

Clear sky no obstructions, Mack. I still think it's a hardware issue. Remember I tried the dish, different dishes, etc., in different locations. Same result. Different recievers, no help. All work just not here. I'm thinking all that helped me, myself included, are making the same mistake or...

So should I cover one of the LNB's? Preferably the 110 (which one is that BTW?) or connect only to port one on the LNB (119 I hope) and try that?

Just tried turning it 9 dergrees west and lowered the elevation 4 degrees as suggested. No signal at all. Brussman, maybe that's my problem? 110 is a default? It seems to be all I can get no matter what I do. Have the birdog meter but hasn't helped so far?

Ha! Not quite yet. Sun finally came out after several days of rain. Going to try a few things in a bit and I'll report back!

Currently using those Matt, I'll try that Hifi, I believe it is Gary. Thanks guys I'll post my results.

95008. I've tried it at many different settings. Currently I started at 46.7 elev., 175.1 Azm., and 86.1 skew. Using the Birdog meter it does change to get better signal and that's where I leave it. Also have done it using the TV hooked up and same results.

110 first then the infamous x x.

Hey guys, hope you can help a rookie? Have 625 reciever, 1000.2 dish, and RG6 cable. Replaced every single component with brand new stuff. Tried other dishes, tried other recievers, tried moving the dish to different locations in the yard. Aimed, aimed, and reaimed the dish with a Birdog meter...
