The channels I am receiving are listed on Lyngsat as correct for C or Ku.

I am using an Astrotel model PMJ Gold Label Series Digital Compliant Mini Ku LNB with 0.6 db.

Let me know what this info tells you.

Thanks,
I can not find any information on the lnb you list which is really irrelevant anyway. If all you are getting is 51 & 52 respectively from G0 with a Fortec receiver & a 10' dish your alignment is off. As a matter of fact pretty far off. You should be more like 80 - 85 & 65 - 70 and those numbers are from a 8.5' dish which is not perfectly aligned. Since you report no Ku on the DSR922 & I assume you have it properly setup for your specific equipment I am starting to suspect you are in a side lobe and not even aligned on the true signal at all. Can you place an angle finder on your dish and tell us what it reads along with your location info?

Are you receiving the 2 channels on X0? Should be 600 & 601 on the DSR922
