    Ok, tell us what you have done so far...
    Have you flashed it with an immage?
    Is it connected up to satellite dish proper?
    Are you getting anything?

        you didn't say if you have motorised dish:

        if you have motorised.. do you get reception on 28?

        if not.. what channel does it find? if it's the uk channels, do a factory reset so the initial setup comes up and select 28 as your default (and only) satellite

        ..if the channels are foreign you may need your dish moved

            Goto setup/satellites and transponders/satfind and report back your AGC and SNR %'s.
            Be sure your setup to receiver 28.2E single sat/lnb if your on a static dish.
