My System: TM6800HD, TM1000, TM600 Linux,TM5200, TM2200 motor, Triax TD110 dish + Fortec 85cm. Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT

Firstly, check you cable and make sure that the connectors are good with no bits of braid or foil able to short to the centre conductor, and that there is 2-3 mm of the centre conductor protruding.

On the receiver, somewhere?. There should be a setup or installation menu. In there you should find a way of selecting a satellite, together with a transponder list, also a signal quality meter.

Pick a tranponder eg 10773H (shows BBC1) and adjust the dish till you get max signal quality. When you do, leave the dish alone for a minute, do a rescan of the transponder and ensure that you can watch BBC1. Is so, good Job done, tighten up.

If not, dish is on the wrong sat, make a note of what channels you get and their frequencies, and consult kingofsat channel seacrh to find out what sat it was. Good Luck!
