You would need to go into the sat list & add all the sats you want in the correct order and then blind scan each sat. If thats SES-1 at 101.0°W then you must be in North America, the openbox v8s is meant for Europe & has only European Sats stored in it's Satellite list. According to Lyngsat, there are a number of free channels on it. I am using SES-1 as the home satellite for the FTA channels. Any suggestions will be deeply appreciated. I assumed it was defective, but this box is doing the same thing. I sent the first one back because it was doing the same thing. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong and can I fix it? This is the second box I got from Amazon. I was hoping the Openbox was a plug and play system, but it looks like it isn't.

NoCh stays on the box display and the TV also shows "No signal".
Also, the box goes through the loading procedure, shows L100, then STRT and then displays NoCh and the box will not startup. When I hook up the V8S in that fashion, I get no signal output to the TV through the HDMI. Can I plug the C band signal cable into the V8S box, or do I have to do something else? I was planning on using the 4DTV to move the dish and change the polarity to get the channels. LNB's This was originally attached to my 4DTV receiver. I have a 10' KTI mesh dish with Chapparal dual feedhorn with C and Ku.
