Re: Setup Help
Ok..I'm a newbie so please be patient with me. I just purchased a Captive Works FTA receiver, and i have absolutely no clue where to aim my dish. I am located in Kingston Ontario Canada. Can anyone please help me with Elevation, and Skew...and if you know it the Azimuth would be helpful as well.

Re: Setup Help
thanks for all of your help everyone...i will try those settings tomorrow...its getting late and my patience has run out for the day.. I'm currently using a used LNB and my brother is giving me a new universal LNB on Friday..hopefully that will solve the issues.
I have used the settings recommended in dishpointer.com, but all im getting is 72% strength, and absolutely no signal what so ever.
