Any suggestions?
Kymmy's right - your dish is probably pointing too far south. Start with the dish pointing about 30 degrees more easterly than where you expect to pick up the satellite(s) - then move the dish in a southerly direction until you get a reading in the quality bar. IIRC my readings are quality 99%, strength 63-70%
