Not getting new HD channels

[pfan1981]

I have AT200 and should be getting some of the new HD offerings (E! HD for sure). Here is the problem, I'm an idiot. I have two dishes, but have no idea what they are or what they are pointing at. I checked under all subscription, but only the normal E! is there (I know there are other channels, but I know this one for sure).

1. How can I check what my two dishes are?

2. How can I check what they are pointing at?

3. How can I get the new HD?

I live in NE WI with a zip of 54166. Any help is appreciated, you guys are going straight to heaven for helping satellite blondes like me.

Thanks,

Menu 6-1-3 and read off the satellites. Then report back.

Green Bay is an Eastern Arc DMA, I bet you currently have one dish pointed at 110/119 and another at 61.5.

You could repoint the 61.5 to 129 but this will cause you to lose HD locals. Complete solution is for you to get a new 1000.4 dish.

The other option is to repoint the dish that is now at 110/119 to 61.5 & 72.7 then the one that is pointing to 61.5 to 119. They will give the same sats as the 1000.4.

Creative. Will a 500 dish hit 61.5 & 72.7 @ the same?

Please see this thread that I started last week:

Does DISH just give these out? I assume I will have to pay for it, I am already in contract so I can't extend it out.

Sorta weird that DISH would add HD, but have only certain customers receiving it.

How do I resolve this? Thanks for all the insight, btw

Through a Tech Chat, I agreed to pay $15 for Service Technician visit to change my dish and its directionality. I live in Florida and the Technician installed Western Arc, because it can mounted on fascia.

What packages are the new HD in?

I have what used to be called Turbo Sukver HD.
