I have a tree in front of me but i am 3 storeys up so it is the middle "seethrough" tree structure and sky can be recived through it.
Just thought I have missed the glaringly obvious button that says "receive signal"
When you say "right LNB socket", do you mean the one right-most (when facing the front of the receiver), or the one to the left of the right-most one? Because the right-most LNB socket is a loop through, whereas the one to the left of this is the LNB input.

What type of dish and LNB are you using?
