119 is about 3" to the right of 110 and about 2" higher so skew the dish

KENBOB your very close if you have 110 don't move the dish just yet, try skewing it first, it's approx.2" higher if looking from the back,

Thanks, for helpful sites.
Can I receive 119 sat signal on my 20" dish in Edmonton? Tried some many times without any luck.

Can't get all local channels on 119? Do I need a channel list that has those channels? I've been doing blind scans but I always get the same channels.

Channel lists won't help if your dish is not aligned properly.

Thx h3lt3r

Mainly, I trying to get all Los Angeles local channels. So far I can get ABC, CBS, Fox so I don't think the dish is misaligned. I'm trying to get the rest of them. I've done several blind scans but always get the same channels. Any other suggestion?

Almost all other locals if you're on the west coast are on 148w sat, if you're not on the west coast they're on 121w sat.

I'll try that. However on lyngsat.c I noticed the LA channels are on 119 not 148 or 121. As I mentioned before I'm getting a couple of channels already in the LA region but not all of them. Thanks for your inputs, h3lt3r.

I'm sorry they are on 119, TP15, don't know what I was thinking.

Try scanning that TP, coordinates are TP15: 12428 V 20000.

If that doesn't work try loading a channel list, won't hurt checking that.
