Sorry for taking so long. As you know, I managed to get a sat locked in. Next, I went out to align the dish to correct due south by means of azimuth. At my location, it seems that 5 degrees declination was perfect. I am now tracking the sat arc. I just need to tweak the LNBF to maximize signal. So far, so good. I figured out my problem with LNBF dropping out by realizing that I was still thinking old school. I was thinking that I had an analog receiver. I kept on wondering why I wasn't picking up signals. It was because I had no TPs in the list and as you know with digital receivers, you can't pick-up a signal without a TP entered. Finally, in order to find new satellite locations, I used my coax satfinder and now I have discovered over 1500 channels scrambled and unscrambled via both C and Ku bands. Thanks Lak7, B.J., and others for your help.
