snr 60% - unable to lock

[azza_stella]

Hi

Constantly getting snr at 60% on dm500s with no picture.

Changed the image.

Moved the dish to try and locate a signal unable to lock.

Currently trying to locate thor.

Any ideas anyone.

Thanx in advance

Hi

If your on a motorised dish and some sats are not signalling as they should for your location , usually means mounting pole isn`t 100% plumb , pole must be absolutely vertical on all sides mate
