HI there. I'm glad I don't have an H25 receiver. That sounds worse. I have a D12-500. That's the new receiver.
OK, so you need to get into the setup menu on the D12 as well once you have the MotoSAT locked on and have a confirmed signal. You will want to verify that the receiver is set to 18" round antenna type and multi-switch before moving on. Then go to Signal Strength and Signal Meter to see if you have a single on 101 transponder 1. If so, you will need to click all of the Continue buttons until you end the setup routine. If not, you may have a bad A/B switch/connection so you can try moving the cable from the old receiver to the new.
