[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 1081466, member: 176362"] If you can find an old receiver & portable tv take them up to the roof & attach the receiver to an lnb with a short bit of cable. Tune the receiver to one of the supposedly active frequencies and dstart hunting. If you arent used to using a meter ts much easier to find signals by using the receiver meters on a transponder. Mark the dish bolts with tippex / a sharpie etc so you can quickly reset. Loosen the bolts just enough so the dish can move - take extreme care and dont try if its windy - a decent sized dish could easily cause severe injury if it swings free when caught by a gust. Works slowly & logically across the arc where you believe the satellite to be located. Use dishpointer.com to give you a starting point as to where the dish should be pointing for a particular satellite. [/QUOTE]
