Saturday, October 07, 2006 - 20:39 GMT Yeah, it's your satellite selection. You wanna aim at the 119 bird, most likely your aiming at 110 right now. Like I said aim at the 119 then do your Blind Scan.

Saturday, October 07, 2006 - 20:58 GMT I'm not sure about the 2300, try a advanced scan. You got nothing to lose, but you may get double channels.

Saturday, October 07, 2006 - 21:18 GMT Try deleting all your channels and shut the receiver down (turn the switch off at the back) for a few minutes. Turn it back on, do a satellite scan on whatever birds you are aimed at and you should get all channels.

Sunday, October 08, 2006 - 12:06 GMT Hey Guys Use Advanced Scan is the same as Blind Scan. See if your mast is level. (both sides) Check Dish Alignment.
