<> HDTV MODEL 922

Don't know if I got a bad unit or what???....always looked
shitty right outta the box, compared to my old analog.....
can get analog channels with 82-92 signal strength, but
lots of "noise" in the picture...no digital channels at all!!!

I live in Orlando area....have a 10' dish, and just installed
a 15 degree LNB, to see if that would help....it didn't....

Any suggestions would be appreciated....I believe the
dish etc. is ok, cause the old analog receiver had a
great picture, rock solid all the time.....with the 922
every time I change satellites I have to repeak the
dish to get a viewable signal!!!!.....

There should be a braided uninsualted strand of wire in the actuator bundle. Connect
it to the ground lug on the 922 back panel and see if that helps.

Did you set the skew correctly?
