Re: Help with aiming

2 different sats at same position. Get lock on circular (directv) does not garantee you get lock on linear signal since the linear ku signal is way weaker. Also make sure you set the lnbf tilt correctly. Need to check LOF settings as well. Also pick and active transponder on AMC4 when tuning the dish.

What am I doing wrong. Bought dish and lnb from you guys, so I know I got the right equiptment. Help.
Thanks
