I deleted all channels, now I am unable to scan them back. Satellite is showing good signal(72,75), however quality is 0 on Echo 7 and 8 (even when I change port 1/2/3, still quality is 0).

PS: I changed the switch last week only (viewsat switch), so am hoping it's not gone bad that soon...

Any help is appreciated.

guys even if switch is bad, port 1 will work
tis guy has problems with the settings and until he posts the antenna settings for each satellite we can not help.
the other thing to do is by pass the switch and hook up any one satellite directly,and post results

that's what plymouth says........african I disagree with you......I have a switch in which I had to use port 3 instead of one cause # 1 is not working.......RVM tell us if you have a standard LNB in your settings......

change TP freq on 119 to 11239........and make sure your diseqc ports match your actual setup (119 on port 2 and 110 on port 1)......how's the weather out there????

just to clarify changing tp from 12224 to 239 wont get you quality if its not their, but if its there 12239 will show it.

I think ur setting r good if ports are correct. u can check your switch again by moving to another ports (tight-lose connections if they r) or try what plymouth has said early.
if nothing shows you Q, make sure your dish has not moved or anything like that.
because if switch is showing u signal (connectivity) it should be good.

only time port change itself is when you do factory default, if you are only loading new file it shouldn't change anything in your setting..

well so far i changed the settings as suggested and did a scan.. got few channels, however no zee.only star+ is on others are on autoroll processing.
Funny thing when I see the info on botton left corner, it says echo 3 61.5w.

I then scanned on echo 3, port 2
got all channels even zee, but all on autoroll processing.

Let me see how long it last.

Will post update.

Not guaranteed but u can try this...

I think when you coming out from antenna settings your sat name is going back to echo 3,

Make sure you set them correctly save and right away Autoscan one sat at a time. If info is saying echo 3 means that's whats saved on your port

sometimes when you open Antenna setting and change either name or port #, EVEN u saving them they gets messed up.
