I just set up my dish to get 91W Nimiq 1 but not all the channels are there. All the transponders seem to be there but missing some of the channels. I have CW600P and signal is around 70 %. I'm missing TBS, Setanta, ESPN classic, and regular ESPN, channel 391 NCAA, SPEED US....

When I do a scan I get total of 230 channels on 91W. Dih settings are LNB Freq. 11250. Please provide your inputs.

Thanks

Check if your channels are only on Horizontal
If yes check all cable or the switch

Yes I have one
just to do a Blind scan and you supposed to recover all channels
Check if you have only Horizontal(left) channel
If yes you cannot receive all channels.
Bad contact on cable result in low voltage and low voltage give only half channels

You are supposed to have + - 500 channels

On your remote "Press OK" and check all channels and see if big H or big V is display.
If you see only H on each channels
the problem is bad contact and voltage lost.
Check it please

Plymouth i use to get Dicknet for couple of years but now since i moved into a apartment they dont allow dishes. what i do is I put the dish on the ground into a bucket but 110 and 119 are too West for me so i cannot catch signal. 82W and 91W on the other hand i do catch but i just cannot get all the channels to work. ill let you know in about an hour what i did.

OK Bobby do you have a cheap satellite tracker?
I read your first post and you are only 70 signal, its too low, under 75 you cannot receive all channels.
With your location, you can buy a booster signal, thats help too.

How is quality?

Quality 68
Strength 86

All channels are on V. none of them are on the H even after Blind Scan

That could be where you take your file.
You can have 2 or 3 different files
