sorry - just re-read your post - it sounds like I could really mess it up and then not have any tv....guess we'll stick with 119! Thanks for all your help - at least I know I've done everything inside that I can do!!

I'd like to try - we will not be here when they can send someone out....what do I need and how do I re-aim it? Thanks!

how do I peack the dish? Line of sight is unobstructed - it is on our pier with no trees, etc.

I have a message on the point dish screen that flashes and says: Signal meter has been nmodified. Select Help for details." When I select helpit says that : Signal strengh neter has nbeen modified with a recent software upgrade for improved prformance. This change may cause the signal...

all the ones on 119 from 11-15 are in the 30s. 110: transponder 15 is in the red - shows no signal strength; 14 shows 24; 13 shows 1, 12 shows 9 and 11 shows 15

119: transponder 11: - 30 transponder 12 - 37

Box stays here - I rebooted; unplugged it for 30 minutes; changed plugs, etc.....

I have a 625 DVR ; Dish 500 and the check switch shows ok for both 119 and 110 and recepti8on verfied. The switch is a dpp Twin w/Separator.

Dish is at our lake house and we haven't been there for several months. Got in last night and some channels would be fine, but other channels would give an "attention 015" message and then switch to Error 002 - it could never "acquire" the satellite. After spending hours on the phone with Dish...

Friend of mine just got a Direct TV sat-go. It's awesome - it's a satellite tv in a briefcase - great for tailgating, etc. Does Dish have anything like this or is there anything in the works? Would love to have this for Dish...

Thanks for all your patience!

1. My "default" is 129 , transponder 19. (I went to setup and changed it to 4 and it said "locked" and I got a signal strenth of 91.). when I went back to check it, is was back to transponder 19. 2. Vip622 3. Montgomery, Al. (Montgomery County) Believe it or not - it just worked -...

Thanks! Is there a city where I can "move" to from Montgomery Alabama that will let me pick up the right "spotbeam" as well as the locals in hd? (Hope I asked that question correctly....)

still confused... I went to setup, installation, point dish and changed Sat. 120 from trans. 19 to 4. Still no local channels even though my programming shows that I have the locals. Is there enough location that I should "move" to? Also, how did you know to go to transponder 4 - is there a...

I live in Montgomery Al. I cannot get any local HD and only NBC ota in HD. I have a 1000 dish and get 110 (signal 96), 119 (signal 109) and 120 (signal 89). I just "moved" to Atlanta to try and get the HD networks. Unfortunately, all that has happened is that my timezone has changed and I...
