    your dish isnt lined up correctly then


    try and get the maximum signal strength by adjusting the dish on the pole l/r and u/d


    if you are unsure of where south is for thor you can use UK sky to set your dish i have and it worked fine


    point your dish to where your sky dish is pointing make sure it recieves the maximum signal you can get by nuging the dish to optimum signal strength and also make sure your pole is dead straight

    then go to your box and set your long/lat and then do a manual search for 19.2 the dish should go to it if its all lined up correctly if ok try the rest it should find them all

    if however say it finds some but thor is weak or not at all its one of a few things

    your dish is not level and its losing the arc as it swings round its not big enough or there is something in the way
