Thank you! I am looking at Des Moines SD locals. Appreciate all the help. :)

Happy holidays, all! I have a dumb question regarding spotbeams. How precise are they? I may be relocating from mid-Iowa to the Minneapolis area. Both locals are on the same spotbeam. Would I still be able to pick up the Iowa locals? (The reason why I'm not keen on just calling Dish...

Thanks, Iceberg. Very odd situation because I KNEW that the Dish wasn't aimed correctly. The elevation was just enough off that I don't believe it was actually picking up either the 110 or 119. I finally eyeballed it instead of using the instruments and started receiving both. The suggestion...

Good evening, all! I posted a couple months back about getting Shaw set up. DISH worked great. Now I moved back to Iowa and am having trouble with the 119 on DISH. I am using 110 skew, 38 on elevation, and 202 on the azumuth. 110 booms in fine. The check switch said that it wasn't detecting...

I wanted to follow up and thank everybody for all of their help. It ended up being both a pointing problem and an authorization problem. I ended up dowloading a Droid satellite finder app and it worked great! The installer and later me were a little bit off using Mike's info. Not much, but...

Thanks for the reply! When I turn on the 315 at the bird I see the grey screen where it tells me "please wait while we process your request". I do not get the message that I need a subscription to view what I am viewing as I did prior to when the box was authorized when I first got it...

Any prognosis? Am I in the right spot, but not enough signal or something else? Thanks!

Ah! Those were virtually non-existant, if we are talking about the Db range indicator on line C of the 505.

As a follow up, those arewhat I'm seeing on the 505. The 315 that I'm using at the pole shows a signal level of 89 with a quality of 99 on all of those services (except 285 which it won't select). All the aforementioned info is the same. Thanks again! :)

Thanks for all the helpful responses! Here is where I'm at now: - I'm getting "20" on the bar for both sats. I know that could be default, but when I adjust the dish it will go anywhere from zero to the twenty. I must be picking up "something" other than noise - the skew, etc. I'm...

Thanks for the feedback. I couldn't remember if I had been on F1 or F2. That's why I said that it was the one with all the HD. :) When I was getting the 80+ (but no picture) I wasn't getting anything on the free SD that I used to use to point the dish such as 299. That is one reason I...

Good evening! I had Shaw in Iowa where it worked fine. I recently moved to Maryland and have been experiencing some "interesting" things. I am 90% sure that elevation, AZ and skew are correct for my area. However I am getting limited signal. I adjusted all of the settings and this is the...

Well now that I think about it, NPS already has all my info because I have PT-24 (what's left of it) and the Denvers. Too bad they have to pick Atlanta. I'll miss the Big Apple except for the ones on C-band. LA (nothing personal Angelinos) I could care less about. I would find it hard to...

I am assuming that because I have distants now from DISH that I won't have to go through all of the crap I did eight years ago when I first qualified with DISH? :confused:

So what about the CWs & My Network? I have been told alternatively by DISH supervisors that KTLA, etc. are subject to the cutoff and that they are not subject to the cutoff. :mad: Does anyone have any idea as to whether or not those will continue? I keep pointing out that it only talks...

The Court Screwed Up I know many people are chuckling about this, but I'm one of those million that it affects. :mad: I am smack in between three markets none of which can be obtained without a bunch of snow. The old "Contour B" place. Much as I dislike DISH, PT-24 pulled the west feeds...
