[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 973489, member: 176256"] My first thought is that the the plug that goes into the back of the receiver was put on wrongly. Either it had unscrewed from the cable a bit (when it was removed from the old satellite receiver) or the centre wire had bent over when the plug was being put on to the new receiver. The same might be true of the new cable that was put in with the added possibility that there is a single wisp of copper wire from the braid shorting out to the centre wire - it's very easy to do this if you don't watch out Unfortunately if you have moved the dish out of its correct alignment and not put back to the correct position you won't be able to check this out. What you need to do is be absolutely sure that the cable and plugs are absolutely correct and then see if you can put the dish back where it should be. [/QUOTE]
