Moved from Choctaw, OK to just North of Watertown. What satellite do I aim at, and peak at (previously 119). Transponder numbers? Got my angles from Dish pointer. Is it still 110, 119, and 129?

Thanks.

negative you need an eastern arc lnbf to pick up eastern arc birds.
and your dish will be pointed south/southeast
call in and set up a mover tech visit, if you had service for more than a year at your old location its free.

or get a hold of a DIRT team member on this site and they can set you up.
CheriT @ DISH Network is online now send her a pm

Your locals in HD are on 61.5 so you would want the Eastern Arc satellites 61.5 and 72.

Watertown locals are also on the Western Arc in SD, 119. So if you only have SD equipment you can still use the satellites you were using before, in fact in that case you must.

Also, how's Marc doing these days....

What receiver do you have? the earc uses a different compression and some western arc receivers will not work.
All the Watertown locals are on 61.5.

VIP612. we can get a lock on 72. Will we need a new LNB

Yes. Different spacing. Contact a member of DIRT to arrange a move. Dish mover is "supposed to be free.

if you have service for more than 12 months at your old location.
if less there is a fee.

I'm just north of Watertown and use a 1000.2 WA,with an old 500 quad as a wing dish for 61.5.When I first set up, the locals weren't HD yet and the local PBS still isn't,even tho it's supposedly been uplinked for the last 6 months or so.But I use OTA for my locals anyway.

I apologize for the delay in my response. I have been out of the office for a week. If you still would like assistance with setting up a DISH Mover please feel free to send me a PM with your account information.
