Yet again! No horizontal on ses 1 at 101

[tiredold]

I replaced the LNB with a Titanium dual (incredible), new coax, realigned feedhorn. Everything worked great!! Signal 91, quality 84 (on horizontals) 40 on verticals. That is until I noticed today. Two recievers. One shows nothing on horizantals, the other shows 91, but both show 0 on quality. Everything is good on satellites on either side. Rescanned, cursed, everything I can think of. No joy. I would appreciate any help.

Shoot me a satellite that you get with different signal levels on H & V transponders.
Give me the frequencies and polarities. Where abouts do you live?
Can you switch to display decibels? If not, no biggie

I do know if you are upgrading from a C1PLL the 0 skew arrow is opposite.

I am in Toronto Ontario Canada. Upgrading from a BCE dual output? Before all transponders came in at 91% strength. Now some of them are fluctuating from 40% to 90%. But what has me stumped is 91% strength and 0% quality. 5G? Every other satellite works as it should.

Your 91% strength reading confirms that you are operating the system, but not really much more than that. If you have a similar reading on the other polarity, but have a fair to good Quality reading, that is where you should be adjusting and monitoring. Quality reading often differs between H and V, so peak one of them for highest reading and then go to the opposite polarity on a transponder assigned to it.
Balance back and forth until both have something more. Fine tune dish up and down as well as left and right to get highest reading on your strongest side. Once there, go back to optimizing each polarity separately until they are fairly balanced in level. Good luck!

How would I fine tune the polarity? Change the skew of the LNBF? I tweaked the east-west quite well. The sats on either side work really well. Tonight the verticals are pixelating and breaking up as well. Same problem I had before changing everything.
