I want to add a 211K which I have used before to my account but have a question.

I have recently been switched from Weatern Arc to Eastern Arc.... when I now plug in my 211K it shows the Western Arc 110, 119, 121 Sats.

How do I get the 211K to see the 61.5 and 71 Sats which are being seen by my 722K receiver..... is this something I can do before I call DISH and have then activate the receiver...... or does DISH have to do this when I activate the receiver?

Thanks

Unplug the coax from the dish and run a complete checkswitch, then save. Then, re-connect the coax and let it run checkswitch again.
