Kingdome/Directv question
We have a new to us MH with Kingdome (model 9702 I think). I am totally unfamiliar with the workings of the Kingdome and found the paperwork that came with the MH less than helpful.
I ordered a second Directv receiver (model D12-700C-R)for use in the bedroom and MH. The installer set up the receiver in the bedroom and paired it up with the HD receiver/recorder already in the house.
After he left, I took the receiver out to the MH and hooked it up. The connections were well marked so I am comfortable that it is hooked up right. I do see the Directv screen on the TV.
I held the on button on the Kingdome for 4 seconds as directed on the box. It flashes green and red for a couple seconds and then flashes red. By sound, it is searching, just never finds anything. After about 12-15 minutes I turned it off for fear of burning the motor up.
How long should it take to find the satellite? Is there something else I should do or be aware of?
