I tried using the new setings with SW64 setting and I was able to get only few channels on 118. They autoroll but i believe it's because they moved to N3. In any case, I am still missing many ohter channels on 118.

Yes, but better to use a generic LNB

I set the LNB type to OCS and also tried using Standard but still can't get many channels on 118. I begining to think that I am not locked to 118. But all the info and S/Q indicates that I pointed my dish 500+ correctly. Is there way to confirm if I am locked to 118.

Check on these Transponders if you have a good signal:

11715 ® tp 1 SR 20000 FEC 7/8

11728 (L) tp 2 SR 20000 FEC 7/8

11745 ® tp 3 SR 20000 FEC 7/8

11789 (L) tp 6 SR 20000 FEC 7/8

11806 ® tp 7 SR 20000 FEC 7/8

11959 ® tp 17 SR 20000 FEC 7/8

11989 ® tp 19 SR 20000 FEC 3/4

12063 (L) tp 24 SR 20000 FEC 7/8

12081 ® tp 25 SR 20000 FEC 7/8

Note that many channels are gone on N3, I'm not able to get this bird, so I can't comfirmed that all these Tp work.

If you have a viewsat, you can load the satellite info from viewsatusa.com and you will be able to see it in your list, but you must have a special LNB for get those channels.

If this channel is use by a old channel you will not get it.

Usualy this channel can be found by a autoscan but it is possible that you can't found it.

Delete all 61.5 channels in channels organization and do a blind scan then a autoscan.
