Allen.Hyde - Allen, we made sure the little chrome cap is on and we are hooked up to the main coax
Rich Heck - We have the 50' power cord and it has power to the Winegard 1518 through the cord.
Betty and Lou - We talked to Winegard today and ask if the dish was outdated and she said it should still work. We wasn't home in front of the tv so they are calling me back tomorrow when I get home from work.
Thanks so much for all the help..
