Re: Missing HBO and others!!
I think your TP freq on 119 should be 12239 instead of 12224. Not sure if this is the cause for the missing channels.

Re: Missing HBO and others!!
ziggy is correct but the viewsat seems to always display 12224 even after you change it. i would change it and then rescan both birds (channel scan)
good luck

12224 will need to be deleted from 119. Go to channel scan, pull up 119 sat, scroll down to 12224 tp freq and delete it. Then rescan for channels.

Re: Missing HBO and others!!
You have your LNB set to standard, what type LNB is it that you have. If you are not sure, look at photo gallery at top of page, may be your set up is wrong, also you can not have both birds feeding in on port 4 on your diseq. Depending on LNB type, echo 119 to port 1 and echo 110 to port 2. Are you using any switches? I know you said diseq, but if your LNB has a internal switch, you don't need it. Let us know your LNb type and we can get this fixed for you...
