I downloaded the echostar package and pointed at 119 with 90% quality and 85% signal strength and pressed scan and all the channels are loading but it seems it has been stuck at 85% for an hour. What should I do ? Will it get to 100% or should I stop it some how? and try again. Any help would be appreciated.
LK..how long should I wait , it's been an hour..it has $295Tv station and 5 radio stations and the bottom of the screen is still going. What should I do if nothing changes? Thanks for helping DJ.
