Are you using a switch? For the initial setup, the dish output has to be connected directly to the receiver. Install the switch after you have verified signal.

Also, you need to check compatibility of the dish and receiver to make sure they'll work with each other.

The Dish Network Tech Portal (http://tech.dishnetwork.com/departmental_content/techportal/index.shtml) is a terrific resource.
