Did yo just scan them now?
They may have just changed their keys
I would also make sure yo get signal level on Sat before yo scan correct LNB selection etc.

depending on where you live you might have better luck with 61.5 has all of the same HD channels minus the locals but that sat is if your east coast I'm in WI and have better luck with 61.5

according to the lyngsat sat tracker echo 3 @ 61.5 is damn near directly above you should have no problem hitting that one
