Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 11453 Registered: Jun-06 | jet lee has "4 universal lnbs" He probably has one Universal LNB on 118.7(and 119) and the other two are standard ones accessing 110, 121. jet lee: Please post details, as this is the set up most people would or should be heading for soon except perhaps 121 not needed and 92 needed. Details of any bracket modifications, etc will be appreciated. |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 11461 Registered: Jun-06 | You got a good buy, because you are getting a lot of channels. Are you also getting 119W (Echo 7) channels? |

Gold Member Username: PlymouthQuebec city, Quebec Canada Post Number: 3549 Registered: Jan-08 | jet lee 97 use a universal linear LNB, Bev an Dn use a cicular LNB, you cant use 4 universal LNBs.  |
|
Bronze Member Username: Jet9508Post Number: 40 Registered: Jul-06 | I haven't got it yet, just want to make sure I can use it. so is this mean that dish can use only on 97w, or any else? |

Gold Member Username: PlymouthQuebec city, Quebec Canada Post Number: 3554 Registered: Jan-08 | No this dish can get many satellites with good LNBs and a multi LNBs bracket. You can buy a motor and a Invacom QPH-031 Universal Linear/circular LNB, but you need to be a pro for aligned this dish. With it you can get over 10 satellites with appropriated receiver |

Bronze Member Username: Jet9508Post Number: 41 Registered: Jul-06 | I just bought a 36" dish with digiwave lnb, for 118.8 and 119 satellite, but the lnb couldn't locate any bird, I put the old lnb up and it can locate 110 and 119 without any problem. will it be the lnb problem? |

Bronze Member Username: Jet9508Post Number: 42 Registered: Jul-06 | but from my viewsat setup, I don't see any signal bar with the digiwave lnb, maybe they gave me bad lnb. when I put the old lnb up no problem get signal from 119w. |
|
Gold Member Username: PlymouthQuebec city, Quebec Canada Post Number: 3593 Registered: Jan-08 | Jet try on standard LNB and 22Khz set on "ON" |
|
Bronze Member Username: Jet9508Post Number: 43 Registered: Jul-06 | when I use standard lnb, it locate 119w alright. after I switch to new lnb it just has no signal at all, I spent 2 days play around with it, still no luck. any help? here is what i did. 36" dish with standard lnb, 119w works fine. switch to new lnb, my viewsat show no signal bar, change lnb freq to 10600, scan, no channel. did I miss something. |

Bronze Member Username: BazzoonPost Number: 27 Registered: Aug-07 | jet lee, when you say it does not work you need to explain what setting in your setup page when you have the new LNB mounted. Only this way people can give you meaningful instructions. Regards; |

Gold Member Username: PlymouthQuebec city, Quebec Canada Post Number: 3624 Registered: Jan-08 | jet lee Do 2 scan 1 on 11250 and 1 on 10750 |
|
Bronze Member Username: BazzoonPost Number: 28 Registered: Aug-07 | did you try 22khz on? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Jet9508Post Number: 45 Registered: Jul-06 | I manage to get 57 channels from 119w, still no luck with 118.8 yet. about the dish aiming, why two dish point 10' different for 119w? for 118 i use echostar 9 121w lnb power on lnb type universal and standard lnb high 10600 lnb low 9750 and off tp freq 11715 from channel scan I delete all old freq and put in new one 11715 ,11720 etc and auto scan no channel come up. |

Gold Member Username: PlymouthQuebec city, Quebec Canada Post Number: 3628 Registered: Jan-08 | Jet Lee you dont need to scan with 121W Do 2 scan on 119W 1 on 11250 and 1 on 10750 |
|
Bronze Member Username: Jet9508Post Number: 46 Registered: Jul-06 | I though I have to use 121w setup for 118.8w and scan, I tried 11250 and it wouldn't work on 11250 because the lnb will not work on 11250, I think I know the problem, not enough signal from the new digiwave lnb. the old standard lnb have much more signal for echo 7. the digiwave have only 26 signal bar. and the old lnb has 80. don't understand why, maybe I should try other brand lnb. |
