guys, now i will explain my problem. I have a pansat 25oo a receiver hooked up to 4 dishes with a diseqc switch. 110,119,121 & 97. for the first 5 minutes all were working fine. Then all of a sudden the receiver went blank. (lost power). Rebooted the receiver by disconnecting and reconnecting the power. now the receiver is back. but when i went to the installation screen no sats have signals or quality. i loaded the receiver with factory bin and then 273t. Rescanned the sats and got 121 back. 119 with 73 % signal but no quality. anyway, i blind scanned and got all channels back. Remember this is without any quality. Then i got 97 back. but no way i can get signals from 110. I tried changing the diseq switch. It didn't help. when i was going through different fta site forums, i read switches may develop problems if there is no proper grounding. But i couldn't find the proper procedure of grounding. Bros, if any body knows how to ground a dish, please write or lead me to a sticky.

thanks.
plutoman.

Grounding - for use of power surge protection,i.e, ligthning, to prevent receivers.
