Receiver locked, block LNB's with foil except one and device will quickly report signal strength at the dish?

Not sure why you would block one LNB with foil ... anyways the sat finder works best in fine tuning the position after you've already established level, azimuth, etc. if you are pointed at the wrong sat all it will do is help you fine tune the wrong sat!

Some Dish satellite receivers have a hard disk drive in them. These drives remain powered up even though the unit is turned "off". The unit also is receiving software updates when turned off. Most likely this device should not be your control.

Can you tell me what type of the devices that you used to strengthen the signal (name, model, the frequency)

i tried it and it would not work the receiver box is programed to point the dish

They have a separate model that is specific to Dish. Same internals but different LNBs as I understand.

I use the receiver from my home. It appears that any Dish receiver will work on the unit. Great unit

If the DISH satellite receiver has a signal output using RCA cables, should work fine. If the tv has a coax input.

Any dish receiver will work with this unit. I grab my hopper and Joey from the house (you need to install a switch to use the Joey - DISH Network 185834 Solo Node For Hopper/Joey) and it works great.

Yes you will need a receiver to encrypt signal + you will need subscription dtv or dish

This is what I can tell you. I don't know about the receiver. But it is very hard to find satillites. I ended up buy the Dish network tail gater package. It's the Best! The satillite antena fine the signal automatically. Takes about 7 minutes. I purchased it from Amazon. Please check it out you won't be sorry. Best regards. Ray

Yes, worked for me very well, and more than that - i developed custom application that will detect spectrum changes (new transmissions). But decoding complex signals probably will have problems, Raspberry CPU power is limited.

I have no idea but usually these types of things dont draw much power. of course you would need both the receiver and dish and of course the 2 would draw more than one but once the dish is found the signal I would think its power draw would be minimal. Would be interested to know though.

All I can say is that I attached the cable to the receiver and had dish activate it. and all is working just fine. hope that helps some. Good luck to you.

The Newgen+ work with generic LNB, however is better with big dish (or high gain LNB). Is very good receiver. Buy with confidence.

Yes, my receiver came with the DL100 already installed, and it works very well. I will add that the tuner is very sensitive, so the dish needs to be intercepting a strong signal from the satellite.

I have dish and even knowing the code for it it would not work. Using separate remotes.

I don't have Dish so I can't say with 100% certainty. But I believe as long as you're not using one of the RF remotes or the RF function of the remote that IR signals are mostly all compatible.
