Go to manual scan and type 234000 or 250000 for the frequency.
Set constellation to 64qam and bandwidth to 8mhz. Let all other options at auto,
Enable network search, ONIT and BAT and start the scan.

Connect the TV output side of the power inserter to the aerial input of your TV and scan for the analogue channels.
If you get no mmds channels the aerial is not working or misaligned.

A sat box cannot handle the mmds signal.
Beside that sky via satellite is not hacked. A sat box give you not much.

I understand that, but as there is no signal for MMDS, I will have to see what is on offer through the Sat. Someone told me that a DM600 pointing to the right Sat should give me several movie channels with the right CAM installed.

Did you install the mmds aerial by yourself or it is a upc/chorus installation?
Check the direction of the mmds aerials in the neighbourhood.

I installed it myself but I'm sure that its lined up right as the guy across the road is pointing the same way, but he is about 5 or 6 mts higher than my house.
