Dish Problems Can't Post

Just installed a 3 LNB dish with the HD DVR combo. I'm getting 90% signal on only the even transponders and nothing the the odds (SAT A). Also nothing on the 2 other sats. Could I have a bad LNB?

Explain how you ran the coax cables. Did run two lines directly to HD Receiver?
Any grounding block, or multiswitch ?
Always check your coax connections , see if any are loose or were not put on tightly.

Tank,
Thanks for the reply. Turns out that I was locked on to the wrong satellite! Haha. I checked everything and even tried to bypass all connections and still no luck. I was just about to give up and decided to do one last sweep at a rediculous angle and bingo.....hit the correct satellite. Everything came alive and all is good. The recommend pointing angles were off by a huge margin. Thanks for helping.
