I have dtv sitting there no use, so I re-adjust the antenna and got it locked on vs, I tried each times with the last couple of bins supposed to work on bv when they came out, it always showed auto roll processing, does anybody sure if the dtv lnb would work on 91? or perhaps I will need to replace the lnb?

thank you for reply.

DTV single LNB should work on any of 82/91/110/119

btw, it was the dtv 3 in 1, not single.

I tried to get both 82/91, but did not able to get 82, and since I don't have hd, so there is no need for that.

- DTV phase III can not and will not get 82 and 91 at same time
- DTV phase III can not and will not get 110 and 119 at same time

The reason middle LNB picks up only freq above 12.5GHz
So this means if yo are lucky might pickup 2 to 3 TPs at best

DTV PhaseIII was designed for 101/110/119
DTV only use few tps off 110

What I would do if I were yo
- Point middle LNB to 101
- This will line up 1-side LNB to 91 and 1-other side LNB to 110
- This will allow yo to pick up 1-DN (110) and 1-BEV (91)
- Other than that won't get much usage out of PhaseIII dish

Ponting and skew:
Very critical
- So go to http://satcalculator.freehostia.com/
- select multiple sats at least 91/110 alnog with your region
- Set Skew, Elev, azmith to calculated values
- Temp Put a paper cup on middle LNB as it is usless
By looking at front of dish
- Try to move dish side to side line up right LNB to 110 and Left LNB to 91
- With patient pointing yo'll get both

Come back tell me how it worked

thanx for the info.

I am just playing with the extra antenna sitting on my roof, I already have the supre d with 110/118/119. I just thought if I could get a little use of the dtv so I don't have to take it down.

back to Q, I should not have problem with auto rolling it? I can lock, scan in with 70% of quality on around 200 channels if I remember right.

yep
Either one of the side LNB should get yo 91w
70% is good enough
