hi all
i have moved house last year and it is only now that i'm getting round to setting up my system!
i spent yesterday putting the dish and bracket up on the garage wall and running cable into the house.
i then connected my satellite finder between the LNB and receiver and got NO SIGNAL AT ALL.
After scratching my head for a bit and then checking all connections and still getting nothing, i then went and bought new satellite finder from maplin. Thinking that the finder might be faulty. Still no signal.
I then thought there might be something wrong with my cable so I then took the LNB off the satellite and brought it into the house. Using about 0. 5 metre of cable I connected the LNB to the new satellite finder and then connected the finder to the receiver and still no signal.
i am right in thinking that i should still get a signal (of some description) on the new finder even if the LNB is not on the dish?
Everything appears completely dead.
i have ordered a new LNB as well in case it is faulty.
what do you think guys?
thx in advance
