I just installed a Pansat 9200 and a Fortec antenna. I am not able to get more than 25% signal strength. I used a Accutrac 22 Pro dish aligning tool. I tried for more than half a day, but nothing! There is nothing obstructing the dish. Can anyone help, please? Thanks.

Thanks! Why isn't Intelsat America 5 or Telstar 5 listed in the list of satellites in the link you gave me? (I want to get the ethnic channels)

Get your 25% signal back. Rotate the lnb to either the left or the right, depending if the signal gets higher or lower.

Naturally, you want to rotate the lnb in the direction which raises the signal. Once you have peaked the signal by rotating the lnb, then try moving the dish again to optimize your signal.

That should do the trick.
