Hello,
1. Have you checked the meter LO setting for your LNBF/LNB? Universal, 10600, 10750, 5150?
2. Does the 22k switch need to be on or off?
3. How is your dish alignment? Have you ruled this out?
4. Was your meter working before the problem?

Let us know how it goes, and good luck?
BWE :D

I updated mine yesterday and it works OK.

There is an option in the menu for LNB power "OFF"
Check that.
