ok i have the satellite set on 119 and i get most of the channels but i want some local channels and i checked on lyngsat and they are avaiable on that satellite but that tp wont get any quality
local channels are what is called "spot beamed" to particular locations. if you are not in the spot beam you cannot pick up those particular channels. that is why on lyngsat there is different sets of locals for the same tp.
most locals on the west coast and east coast for that matter too is on echo 8 and not echo 7... besides all the locals have the same thing on anyways, how many do you want.
Can I get 119 and 110 with the regular dishnetwork disk 500 with twin lnbs, or Do I have to get special disk and/or lnbs?. Anybody that can help please...
I have a Pansat 2500a hooked up to DN 500 with twin lnbs with multi-switch. When I try to scan echo 8.10 it gets same channel list as when I scan echo 7.
Daneegha, I think you need to check your antenna settings again 119 todisqc 1 110 to disqc to port2 Dp seting 11250 dofactory reset when you scan turn off the the disqc port for the sat you are not scanning this will give you a clean scan with no dup's. Good luck!
