[QUOTE="momtic, post: 74154, member: 186604"] > The only thing that I can think of, is that the higher symbol rates are not in the list for that satellite No - this isn't the case. I tried manually setting the SR and then looking for signal...nothing. This afternoon, I replaced (both) LNBs with new ones (0.3 db). The one that was causing problems was at least 8 years old and looked pretty beat up. In any case, I can now find high SR stations using the same technique that failed before. FWIW, I also replaced the outside wiring. Interesting. The other problem I had remains, namely it can take a long time (or forever) to switch between satellites (I have a Diseqc switch outside on the dish). I have discovered that I can force the switch by going into Manual Search and manually switching the polarization back and forth. Any ideas on why switching is so touchy? [/QUOTE]
