Dish question, problem
I changed my dish arrangement yesterday and now have some issues. I had a single dish for 110 and a single dish for 119. I took them down and removed each lnb and placed them on a dish 500 and put that dish up. Everything on 110 is perfect, 119 has some issues like the following.
Transponder 12239 on some channels has 82 signal, 78 quality but is autorolling, other channels on the same transponder has 0 quality. 12399, 12370, 12297, 12282 all have 0 quality. 12457 has 80 signal and 75 quality but is autorolling. I hope this is a simlpe aleignment problem. Viewsat plat and Ultra. Any help? 2car |

Re: Dish question, problem
More than likely it is alignment problem. You did not mention a switch, need to know the setup and settings

Re: Dish question, problem
i imagine you are using a switch if you had formally 2 single lnbs hooked up to 1 stb. yes you will need to give us your settings and also do as suggested, aim at 119 and get best signal / quality and then skew slightly.

Re: Dish question, problem
Switching ports kills 110 and 119. On 12239 I get no quality and very little signal. I may try to reset the dish tomorrow. I really don't understand why some of the channels have good sig and quality but the box goes in autoroll. Maybe resetting will correct it, if not I'll put the 2 sinles back up.

Re: Dish question, problem
Problem solved. I picked up 1 wrong lnb when I replaced the lnb's. Thought I put the 2 off the old single dishes but I gues I picked up 1 different one. Back to normal. Thanks for the replies. Now you can call me an IDIOT!
