    Signal strength issue - 1000.4 EA

    Glad ;) to know that I'm not the only one in this situation. Played around with the dish on Friday. I was a little bit less aggressive with the cheating on the 72.7. Moved it so it only went down 5-7 and got better SS on the 61.5. Also realized that some of the transponders on the 61.5 are spot...

    Signal strength issue - 1000.4 EA

    You are right. Looking at the dish, pretty sure the signal comes in above the treee line/power line. So trees are not the problem. One thing I didn't mentionned. I'm running a single cable into a separator into my VIP722. Wonder if running two separate cables and removing the separator would...

    Signal strength issue - 1000.4 EA

    Well, after fiddling around the last two weeks and not getting ahead, it's time to ask the pro. Previously, I had a Dish 500 (110/119) and a wing dish at 61.5. Everything had been going fine for years, hardly loosing signal even during bad weather. Was asked by DishNetwork to switch my wing to...

    Relocating from 61.5° to 129° question.

    Many thanks for all the info. and suggestions from all of you. Tried to go the easy way this afternoon and re-pointed my wing dish from 61.5 to 129°. Got the az., elev., and skew from web site refereed by all of you. I had no problem hitting the 72.7 then 110 and 119 (all with the respective...

    Relocating from 61.5° to 129° question.

    Thanks SaltiDaw and n0qcu. You are right; I was looking at the 72.7° sat. Channels listing and I’m missing roughly 15-20 HD. Have them right now but SD only. Some of them are really worth the changeover. I will switch over to the eastern arc (61.5, 72.7 and 77°) as soon as possible. More...
