    please help getting no signal with 1020a

    please help,
    I me and my buddy just bought 2 1020a's from your site now I been 3 days trying to get them to work.
    first I use a reciever to locate a sat and get a good signal, but when I hook the cable to the 1020a it doesn't get any sinal at all, most of the time it says signal 53% - 80% and always quality is 0% but it say that even when i disconnect to cable.
    when I know I got a good sat the visiondtv scan say 0 transponers found.
    I've tryed a dish500 dual and a dtv single LNB, they work find when I hook them to there rec. but the 1020a can't get anything out of them.
    do you need to hook a outside source for the 13v and 18v volts, because a PC only has 3.3v,5v, and 12 volts.
    I just ordered 2 FC80p fortec star 31" from your site lastnight in the hopes that it will fix my problems.
    I still think the problem lies in the computers max voltage is 12 volt and the LNB's use 13 and 18 volts.
    is there a differents in LNB and LNBF ?
    I hope after spending over $300 on your site you could shed a little lite
    thanks so much............

    Not sure what satellites you are trying to get. Directv lnb is circular lnb and LO is 11250. It is possible that you have yours set at something like LO1=9750 and LO2=10600 .

    Sorry if this sounds kind of cryptic, but give a little more information on what you are trying to receive.

    I'm trying to get the channels my pansat 2500a is getting I'm useing the same settings and just changing the cable from the box to the card.
    the th1020a just wont try to recieve anything, when I know I'm getting a good signal from the pansat, I've gone thru all the setting I just got the
    31" fc80p dish from you and my pansat 2500a love it I get twice the stuff I was getting before but the th1020a just can't find a single thing not even a signal, much less any channels..........

    You still haven't answered the previous response.
    The 2500 doesn't care what the LO freq is when in blind search mode, but the 1020 needs to be set up with the proper LO freq and the correct transponder freqs.
