one for radio which have all the games, the games is the reason they want it

Skewed the LNB every which way I could but still nothing.

Try and tweak the signal on that transponder a little more. If I remember right, it is a very strong transponder

12033
H
3003

you might have to manually enter the info and not blind scan

Heres what i'm getting:

Transponder Signal Quality
11822H 68% 74%
11860H 71% 41%
11983H 68% 65%
12033H 0% 0%
12060H 68% 41%
12120V 69% 41%

That is interesting that you get no signal level either,as long as your LNB is connected you should get signal level. Try adding it as 12035 instead of 12033maybe your reciever has a TP conflict with another sat.

oh oh , Strengh at 0 could indicate wrong Dish Set Up parameters. Make sure on the Dish Set up screen or whatever name it has , make sure you entered the correct values like LNB type Standard or LO frecuency 10750 and so on (although if that was the case 12060 and 12120 would not work either) but other than a defective LNB that does not tune in to that frecuency when fed the LO frecuency I can not think of something else.

GaryD , what I meant was, Why using both bands , C and Ku ? , seems to me a waste of money and resources considering it is the same broadcaster not the same signal being delivered by a reseller or another company. Or at least it appears to me it is the same RTP the ones thar are leasing thos TP on both bands. Well I have seen that with other channels as well.
