Why does my SAB xFinder 2 Measuring Instruments say 'No signal'?
- R
  Robert BakerAug 2, 2025
  If your SAB Measuring Instrument displays 'No signal', it could be due to several reasons: * The signal level might be weak. * The LNB could be out of order. * The cable from the LNB or terrestrial connection might be incorrectly connected, leading to a short circuit or open circuit. * The dish position could be misaligned.

  If your SAB Measuring Instrument remote control unit (RCU) isn't responding, the batteries in the RCU might be dead or inserted incorrectly, or the RCU might be pointed in the wrong direction.
