If you see error code 771, it means your DIRECTV receiver is having trouble communicating with your satellite dish. Watch this video to see how to solve this error.
Why can’t I get a signal on my satellite dish?
This issue is usually a result of the satellite dish being in a slightly wrong position, damaged or malfunctioning equipment, severe weather, or something blocking the dish’s view of the sky. Your signal strength can affect the delivery of your live programming, though with a DVR you can still access recorded content.
Why does Winegard trav’ler never send signals down?
It just never sends the signals down after it finds them. (Possibly because it opens the circuit and kills power insertion to the LNB at the end of the hunt and tweaking.)
How does Winegard trav’ler sk-swm3 dish problem?
(I’m presuming the box in the turret electrically kills the signals from passing through to the Genie while it’s on the hunt for the satellites and tweaking the signals so that the signals don’t appear and then disappear on the TV until it has finished the seeking and tweaking process.) It just never sends the signals down after it finds them.
Why does my Winegard not connect to my LNB?
Presumably because the Winegard box has now interrupted the power insertion to the LNB because of the malfunction on the Winegard box. (It’s like once the Winegard box finds the signals, it disconnects or opens the circuit either between it and the power insertion transformer below or it and and the LNB above and everything stops playing.)
Can a Winegard box be used as a receiver?
Signal from the LNB reaches both the Winegard box and the receiver, and of course SWM commands can be passed from each back to the LNB. So I think everything should work this way, again IF the Winegard box does not depend on the receiver to work.
