Did you set up the right lnb and switches for the right satellit?

The 1000.2 dish stays stationary. So do not use the motor. Are you going to be hooking up just the receiver? You will need more power to power up the lnbs. If you go to dishpointer.com and put in your location and select your sat and lnb it will get you close. Make sure to set your mast plumb and level and secure before setting the dish on. You can add a power inserter to port 1 on the lnb or add another receiver dn or fta to the lnb to help power up. Once the dish is in place you can connect the receiver and start moving it to dial it in. don't forget to ground the dish

119 port 1 frequency 11250 ocs-dp
110 port 2 frequency 11250 ocs-dp
129 port 3 frequency 11250 ocs-dp

make sure the bars on the signal and quality meter are blue, if they are red that indicates an issue. Bad setting or not enough power. Post back where your at and Im sure you can get the help you need.

That is why I love the DISH 1000 Pro

110 119 118 129

I have 2 DP44 switches ( Grouding block editions ) and 2 Power inserters

by far the best DISH and easy.....

I used to like DISH 500s and for a novice the DISH 500 might be the most easy for 110 119
but Once you use a DISH 1000 Plus you will not want anything else.
