[QUOTE="The Rascals, post: 1024201, member: 409383"] Got to work today on my new kit as the HH120 motors and ultra black LNB's arrived this morning. As I am replacing motor and dish so all had to come down to get the new kit up, got the HH120 mounted and set the usual parameter (Latitude) assembly my OFC1200 and put a twin Black Ultra on it, mounted this on motor and aligned this with 8W my nearest due south satellite. Before I took down the old kit I had my Clarke-Tech tune to the Test Card on this satellite. There was no signal to be had (I take the TV (LG 43") and the Clarke-Tech receiver outdoors so I can see the signal my self, rather that the lady of the manor shouting through windows) despite moving it slightly east/west- up/down. Took OFC1200 down from roof again and tried it ground level still nothing, connected my old dish and lnb to receiver and test card there, made up new cable from Ultra Lnb on OFC1200 and conned to receiver, and tested at ground level, test card now present, a lot of choice words spoken (I will keep that priest busy if I go to confession) two hours wasted with a dud cable. Went back up on the roof and aligned again , yippie i a, yippie i o, test card on my LG, the sight of that test card make satellite junkies like me almost cry, did a few course adjustments as it was getting dark and tomorrow I will do a bit of fine tweeking. Did a blind scan on 8W, normally only get 3 channels with my Joe Blogs 1M dish, now I had 112, so a very good day's results was had, I must now blind scan all the other satellite positions and see what new world I will be able to see.
