When setting up a dish for MFH-2, using the super buddy to aim the dish, what system setup do you use? I currently use
MFH-1 Basic
LNB 1 transponder 1
LNB 3 transponder 27
LNB 4 transponders 8 10 and 12

I'll find the best DB and IRD average for all. concentrating on LNB 4.

It works but I dont know if its the best. I'm starting a project with over 20 dish's and dont want them to need retunning. This is how i was taught. If its way off, sorry.

What is the correct way to set up a dish (slimline) using the super buddy?

Also 103 is always low and I dont remember which one fails but one of them fails every time. Now that I think about it, maybe 99 fails all the time. I've only set up 2 dish's. One was for MFH-1 over a year and a half ago and the other we haven't used yet (MDU). So i dont know if I'm going to have issues in the future.

Thanks for any help.

I have. It only shows 9 channels. And when flipping through those channels after setting up the dish and swm the numbers are always really good on the super buddy.

whats the db loss after the swm8?
