    I got the satellite dish kit from lidl a few weeks back but am having trouble setting it up
    The dish is mounted and the signal detector that came with the dish beeps loudly to say i have a signal yet my reciever just says that no signal is being recieved
    Im not sure as to what i should do
    Any ideas appreciated

    Try selecting a different Satellite on Setup menu and rescan.

    From channels found and www.lyngsat.com you can figure out which of twenty odd satellites possible here in Ireland your dish is at.

    Then you know if you need to move east or west (which means moving the dish up or down a little too to find a new satellite.

    If the dish is pointing at a house it gets a stong signal!

    Adjsut the signal meter knob for 1/2 scale readding and move the dish slightly, if the signal does not reduce then you are not pointed at anything.

    Turning the knob up full gives a beep and nearly full scale even if pointing at nothing.
