Re: Have signal no quality with correct aiming on dish

I will C/P this information again here. Next time stick with just One Thread for the same question, we will get around to answering it. Too many threads with the same question and solution doesn't help the site.

C/P Information from the other thread (same question)

First thing is you need to do a Factory Default with the remote.

Menu -> System Information -> Factory Default -> 0000 -> Ok

This will not effect the new bin file installed.

If your LNB has Dish Pro on it, or big black DP letters on it, your only need to run one cable to one port on the LNB to the port labeled 13v/18v on back of the receiver. You can disconnect the DiSEqC switch if you hooked it up. The Dish Pro LNB has a DiSEqC switch built into it. You can also run another receiver, so that is 2 receivers off a Dish Pro Twin LNB.

Your settings should then look like this...

Echo 7 119W
LNB Power: On
LNB Type: OCS-DP
LNB Freq: 11250
22KHz: Off
TP: 12239 <-- Change this to see Quality
DiSEqC: Port 1
Motor: Off
Legacy SW: None

You should see the satellite name Echo 7 119W appear at the top. If not, your dish is not aligned correctly.

Echo 10,11 110W
LNB Power: On
LNB Type: OCS-DP
LNB Freq: 11250
22KHz: Off
TP: 12224
DiSEqC: Port 2
Motor: Off
Legacy SW: None

Same here, the Echo 10,11 110W should pop up for you here.

Fllow this for the best scanning instructions -> Viewsat Ultra VS-2000 Perfect Scan Method For DishPro and DishProPlus LNBs

It was written for an Ultra, but will work fine for the Ultra Lite.

After the scans, exit out and wait for 5 minutes to let the keys update, and enjoy!

Good Luck !!

Re: Have signal no quality with correct aiming on dish

it also somewhat sounds like the dish is not pointed correctly. in a perfect world you would just set the dish and it works but in the real world you have to get it close with the calculations and then move it a bit while watching for Q. a sat finder would be great too.
