ok are you just running dishnet or running bev as well? It makes a difference on what you have your switch settings at.

Somthing to try is to revert back to the last fix and see if your SIGNAL comes back. If it doesn't check your cable. An easy way to do that is pull the end off of your switch and use a multimeter (set to DC 20v ish) and see if there is any power comming out of it. It should be from 12v to 19v, any less then 12 volt could indicate a cable problem or reciever problem.

I have all the right settings such as

Echo 3 / Rainbow 1 -> 61.5 deg.
Standard
11250
off
12326
all
port 2
off
none



and Echo 8&10 <- make sure you don't have it aimed at 119, trandposnder 12224 is spot beamed and not all areas can get it.
on
standard
11259
off
12224
all
ports (tried all)
off
none

I have been trying for over 12 hrs and can not get any signal! what do i do next, i neeed help

FTA is nothing to get mad at. Just wait until something bad happens then it'll be time to get mad.. Check all your cables, when you progrqamed your reciever you might have hit the cable and it might have a break in it.

**note** there are 2 bars on your extreme, A Signal and a quality. Signal doesn't mean that the reciever is recieving a sat it's more like a power bar for the LNB. If you don't see any signal at all then it's 100% a connection or cable problem.
