I am having issues trying to install a LG 3200A SAT receiver. It is connected to a TERK TRK-S26 triple LNB dish. Presently, I am able to receive a signal on SAT A, but I am unable to get a signal on either SAT B or C. I have tried rotating the dish as well as connecting the cable to all of the four outputs on the LNB(which contains the built-in multi-switch). In addition, I have tried the various different transponders assigned to SAT A, B, and C. Does anybody know if this is an issue with the SAT receiver, the dish, or the LNB? All input would be appreciated.

No Offense.... But My first guess would be a Problem with the Installer. Since All three LNB's work independantly of each other for the most part The fact that your getting one (A... The easiset to tune in) and not the other TWO leads me to believe this is an installation issue. I have had lots of instances where ONE LNB went bad, but never two... Out of the box even.... Have you checked the Level of the dish? Have you double checked ther Tilt, Azimuth, and Angle adjustments for your specific area?

I (we) have verified tilt, azmuith, and angle several times. Futhermore, I have installed many satellite systems that include this dish and LNB, but never had any problems. This is the first time that I have used this particular SAT receiver. Does anybody have any other ideas as to why I may be having this problem?

I've Installed over a Dozen LSS-3200A so far and have not experienced this problem. We use the Terk Dishes as well.

How long is the coax run from receiver to dish? What kind of wire RG6, RG59 ?

Dishes are cheep, get another one and swap out the triple LNB, if that works fine, if not, swap out the LG box.

Hows the horizon look? Tall trees or buildings will block out the B & C Sat while allowing you to see A. I've seen it before. Not often, but I've seen it.

I had the same problem with one Terk dish and the switch was installed backwards from the factory. Just took it apart and put it back like it should have been.
