[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 11800, member: 174998"] How do you know you're getting a strong signal at the LNB if the digibox itself is reporting no signal? Are you using a separate meter on the LNB? Or do you mean that one of the two bars on the digbox's signal test (the signal strength bar) is registering something while the other (the quality) is registering nothing? If you have a strong signal strength but no quality then there is indeed a good chance you're pointing at the wrong satallite. Note that unlike an analogue receiver, a digital receiver typically takes a few seconds to lock onto a signal. So a steady continuous sweep of the arc will not usually work. You need to make minute adjustments, waiting between each one for a few seconds to give the box chance to lock on. Are you sure the LNB works ok? When was the last time you used it? 2old [/QUOTE]
