Got my Dreamcatcher but cannot keep a lock

Hi everyone, I got my dreamcatcher yesterday, downloaded skylark, imaged it, hooked up the LNB, mounted it to a tripod and started trying to get a connection.

I get a pulsing lock and the best signal strength I can get it is -79. I have checked the direction, the elevation is set correctly and the LNB skew is correct. I even have tried in a defined pattern to move the elevation and Az to try to get something better and it does not get better.

I have it setup outside with nothing obstructing it. I tried 2 different power supplies and even a battery pack because I read that power can be an issue.

I see packets come in but only 11% of them are valid.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Mike
