Are you setting it up right ?

Is there a fence or trees blocking the signal... you will still get the audible sound that you are locked on to the satellite, but you wont get a picture...

Are you locked onto the correct satellite ??

Take a look at the post ( satellite dish ) & use the satellite dish alignment / setup calculator...

You will then see what direction the signal comes from to your house / caravan...

Take your time ........
