Yes there is one.
1. The lnb it self.
2. 1meter Coxial cable wire.
3. Two RF connectors.

Take d lnb into ur apartment and connect one end of the cable to the lnb and the other end to ur receiver.
Goto menu installations .... Just like u want to track and keep ur eyes on the signal meter. If it move to 97% or so, then ur lnb is functioning...... Regards

[quote author=graphicicon]@all, i will not keep quite till they respond to my request.[/quote I beg to disagree with you. If you are lookin for a person who will send the said device to you before you pay simply because you are afraid of losing your money, simply look elsewhere or take a bus to lagos. what of the person that will send the device to you. Among you two, Who is taking a greater risk? I plead that you stop spamming this thread or go ahead and do business with some who has expressed wishes to help you achieve your end. CASH AND CARRY is a business name. Some names here are worth more than gold. Make your findings and know who can give you what you want.

you are correct..but some satellite receivers can't be able to identify bad lnb...more reason why i still keep my old strong x S satellite receiver, the signal quality meter reading will fluctuate when it spot a bad lnb...if it drops to 0% that means lnb won't pick signal, then signal meter reading gets stable if lnb is working or when lnb is disconnected from receiver ,though you don't need to put lnb on a dish..

I still think the traditional tracker is still better than this.as you don't need light to power up your decoders.the traditional trackers have inbuilt everything and its chargeable and portable.

I CONCUR WITH YOU. HAVE HAD A SITUATION WHERE I BOUGHT A STRONG KU LNB. IT TURNED OUT THAT IT CAN ONLY GET SIGNALS ON THE H FREQUENCIES WHILE THE V SIGNALS AREN'T KICKING. YOU THEN IMAGINE HOW I WASTED MAN HOUR AND ENERGY UNTIL I REPLACED IT WITH THE OLDER ONE I HAD ONLY TO KNOW THAT THE NEW LNB IS FAULTY. TILL NOW IT IS STILL LAYING WASTE IN MY TOOL BOX .
