moved to main area

The LNB LO is set to 10750
If you are standing behind the dish, the LNB on the LEFT needs the 22k on (the right one its set top off)

A good transponder is
12177 freq
V
23000 symbol rate

Ok, turn down the font a bit....

Lots of people can help here, but you need to tell them what equipment you have. (LNB type, any switches?). Also, your location would be helpful

The sat doesn't have any special settings that I know of. I use the same settings on that bird as with my other Ku sats.

what reciever? sounds like a Coolsat. If so, that means no signal. The bars turn green when they lock on the signal

What is vertical 22 on or off

vertical means polarity

Do you have a switch involved with the 2 beer can LNB's? If so, remove it for now. Then you don't need to worry about 22k

[Mr Tony]

why do you keep posting the same question? We know the question but you aren't really answering our questions? Did you read the responses?

LNB LO should be 10750 (might say LNB Power)
use the left LNB (if standing behind the dish)
the satellite should be in the box. It may say Telstar 5 (IA5 is the new name)

What is your location so we can make sure the elevation/azimuth are right?
