Hi everyone, hopefully you guys can help me on my issue.

I currently have a Viewsat Xtreme with a Dish 500. My settings are:
echostar 7 119w
trans 12224
LNB freq 11250
LNB type osc-dp
22khz 0ff
Diseqc number 1
legacy sw off
motor none

echostar 10, 11 110w
trans 12224
LNB freq 11250
LNB type osc-dp
22khz 0ff
Diseqc number 2
legacy sw off
motor none

I have been using these settings for about a year at the same location (Southern CA in US) and have been able to pick up all the PPV (500+) and the other channels without any hiccups.

Just recently (within 3-4 wks) I am no longer picking up PPV (500+) and ESPN (140) TNT (138) along with some other channels. However, I am still picking up channel 509 (PPV), 139 (TBS) and others, but some are missing (all the PPV except 509).

I have spent alot of time trying to readjust my dish according to Satellite Finder / Dish Pointing Calculator with Google Maps | DishPointer.com, but am unsuccessful. I have a quality of 72-78 and quality of 70-80 on the channels that do tune in...but no Quality on the rest of the channels with a signal 74-76.

How can I be receiving some channels just fine (S=72-78 Q=70-80), but the rest aren't? For the channels that aren't, I have a signal of 74-76 with zero quality...so I am completely baffled.

I have tried rescanning my antennaes and still the same problem.

Can anyone please give me tips or suggestions to help out my situation? Thank you in advance for reviewing my post.
