    Just curious

    Thanks guys. That's what I do. Always align on the 101 then tune & dither on the 99 & 103. Yes, I do usually get in the high 90's & 100"s on the 101 and right now, I have at least the mid 90's or better on some for the 99 & 103. Was just curious what the letters (ca)(cb) meant......Thanks

    Just curious

    Just curious. What do the letters mean for the 99 & 103 sats? Ie; 99 (ca)( cb) & 103 ( ca)(cb). What, if any significance do they mean when setting up & tuning in for sat. signal? Also, when I have SWiM switch installed, I get a (s) letter in addition. What does that mean? Thanks

    Directv LNB 5 Dish Alignment or Hardware problem?

    I also have a "non SWM" 5 lnb dish (4 leads) with BBC's installed. I have the opposite problem. I suddenly lost all of my 99 transponders & most of my 101 transponders except for 22-30? which remain in the 92 to 100 strength range. Strange thing is, my 103 (ca)(cb) transponders are also in the...
