echo 5 vs echo 7?

[test]

I currently have 2 separate single lnb dishes pointed to 110 and 119 (working fine). I'm trying to re-aim to 129 (echo 5) for a CBS local channel for an NFL game but I see on my Satfinder program that its in the same location as 119? Can someone help me understand the difference between the 2 satellites, and how I can get echo 5 channels. Thanks

If Your Looking For A Nfl Game Today You Will Have No Problem Finding Somewhere On Either 110 Or 119 As It Will Be Broadcast On One Of The 2 Sats Or Both On Multiple Channels.

I've looked through the geame and I have multiple buffalo, pittsburgh, Texans, Green Bay games but I cant find the Cincinnati/Cleveland game on 110 or 119. other than the spotbeams of course but I'm not in that spot beam area

I saw 119 banner (in light blue) in the top-right corner,while scanning for other birds.
I just know,when the right lnb is pointing right,with the right diseq switch setting,the right banner pops up (with 80%+ quality)

i used to have the same problem but i got smart and went and got the dp for tha dish that was pointing at 110-119, and pushed the other dish out past 129 to 146. they carry the same channels, and if u use the diplexor that dn gave, you should never have to move your dishes again and keep all your channels.... im currently working on a third dish to push back toward 91,82 just for the nfl ticket channels....

I found Lyngsat site much more helpful than my sat finder program. All examples I could find on my satfinder program had echo 5 and 7 in the same location but on Lyngsat it clarified its location.
