I've got a Twinhan 1020a and a Dish 500 with a LNBF Dish Pro Plus that I'd like to play around with. The line of sight to the 110 sat is clear, but the 119 is marginal (may hit the edge of a tree that's losing its leaves). I've tried to point the dish using config - while scanning on the converted ini file (all Verticals) posted here, but without luck. I've also got a couple of old DirectTv receivers that I've tried to use, partly to supply extra power to the Plus LNBF and partly to see if they will tell me when I'm pointed right.
I'm floundering a bit, and would appreciate some tips. I've read lots of guides, but have never seen any suggestions here on pointing the dish using config and scanning. Will this work? I'm not sure how fast the scan will respond, even if everytihng is set up correctly. I'm not sure I've got the parameters right for scanning. I'm not sure the LNBF I was given is good. I'm not sure the 1020a card is good. Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Thanks in advance.
