DTV sat reception

[dishcomm]

I installed one today.A Slimline Dish...All 103 TP's say N/A....On the left of the TP screen it says "Signal ok".There was no selction available to check the 99 orbital slot. Yes 5 sat dish was checked ...I have clear LOS to all 5 orbital slots and converters installed on both ..HR-21 in master BR and H21 in the liv room...All sigs on the other birds are great...all 90's to 100..I like to tweak the crap out the dish until I get optimum signal..BTW these readings were taken BEFORE the receivers took their initial software downloads..
Any observations/advice would be most welcome.

So far so good. I told the customer to give me a call if he was missing any channels. Not a peep.
