If you're only getting foreign channels, you're pointing the dish at the wrong satellites.

The sat finder can't tell you which ones you've found, it can only show you that you have a good signal from the ones you've found.

And when you use a compass, remember that magnetic north deviates from true north by an amount that varies from year to year. What compass bearing are you using to aim the dish?
