blinking.
This message may disappear, your screen may go blank for a few minutes,

select Check Switch again. If there is still no signal, confirm that
your skew angle is correct, and start over with
step #3.
•If the signal from the 110 West satellite is weak and you do not see a
green signal strength bar, repeat step #7 to fine-tune the dish until you
have about the same signal strength for both the 119 West and 110
West satellites.
14. Connect any other receivers in the system. Run Check Switch on any
receivers that have not yet taken the software upgrade to make sure they
have the latest software.
