Is your dish big enough for Hotbird in pakistan??

If he were not a wizard, from head down to the root, you would have got to worry-your DB only boots

The Dreambox has a weak tuner. If you are sure your dish is pointing at 13E, store the motor position if you you're using a motor. A dish works for another receiver does not always work with a Dreambox and may need the elevation and position adjusting. I adjust the dish position by turning to a channel that is not a good picture and then move the dish East or West using the <> keys in Motor setup until I get the best picture and then STORE the new satellite position (DM500s does not work with gotoxx). Can you receive any other satellites OK?

Install Dreambox Edit on yor PC and download a channel list- google "cajtons" or "captains settings".

Make a backup of your current channel list if you have one then or just upload the new channel list.

Details of some of this are in the Idiot's Guide.

Hi

If you can not find the component.

Normally connect your FTA receiver and use the coaxial output that you connect to the coaxial input on your DM500

Best regards
