Re: missing channels

Sounds like you need to tweak you dish a bit, what does your signal and strength look like?

Re: missing channels

try rescanning your channels with an autoscan but first like tb said make sure your signal and quality is good.

Re: missing channels

If you have good quality and signal and still not having that channel then scan the Tp individually which is 12239,that's where the channel is.

Re: missing channels

Do a blind scan and see if you get that Tp on the list.

I don't know but I have that channel on that Tp.

That option must be on your antenna setting menu.

First do a factory default then setup your antenna setting again and then do a blind scan.
