[QUOTE="pacmyc, post: 769925, member: 304560"] My 528 also shows high AGC when it's not receiving anything.. Chinese clone :) The best thing is to use another sat receiver that you have used before to align the antenna. If you dont have another one I'd suggest you to buy a cheap "sat beeper".. Google it and you will find it.. Otherwize, if you have a friend that can help you do like this: On kingofsat.net you can search for a channel that you know has a strong signal where you live. Write down the settings for it (frequence, polarization, baud rate, etc.). Than in the dreambox choose to do a "manual tp scan". Select all the settings that you wrote down from the website. Now, let your friend watch the TV and tell you if the box "locked" gets selected, while you are fine-tuning the dish. Then you will now for sure that you found a satellite, and probably the right one. Also check your neighbours antennas how they are aligned, to get a hint where you should start pointing it, you can also use a compass.. Dont forget to move the dish EXTREMLY slowly when looking for sats... [/QUOTE]
