[QUOTE="red, post: 53383, member: 181578"] OK, i've gotten another receiver.. a Scientific Atlanta D9238 (not sure model #, it's on the roof!) and no luck. It sees large (80%) signal strength, but no (0%) quality, all the time. no matter what. Even in locations that i can pull 'free' channels with the Humax. Even when pointed at the ground. If i turn the LNB power off, predictably, the strength goes to 0. So, all i can conclude is that my LNB is wrong or fried. It is matched to the dish, the LNBF is a Pansat PF-7600 Here's the specs: "Digital Ready Offset LNBF" 11.7 - 12.2 Ghz L/O 10.75 Ghz 950 - 1450 Mhz N.F. 0.6 dB The questions are: 1) Can i use any old "universal offset LNBF" to replace it, or must i use a matched Pansat one? 2) Is this the right LNBF for what i'm trying to do? In other words.... do i need to get exactly this one again? I worry that the LNBF is fine, but incorrect for this application... but everything i read implies that they're pretty standard pieces. As always, thanks a ton for the help i've gotten on these boards! [/QUOTE]
