thats about equal to me as well actually lol. oklahoma here.
32 21 and 17 are kick ass transponders!!

 

[Supershooters]

I'm in Oregon and am in the low 60s on a 24". Time to point my 30" to it.

For comparison I have a 24" pointed at 110 (mid 80s) and a 24" pointed at 119 (mid 70s)

DISH1000s are for sissy's

 

[kenny9966]

super low 60s are fine on most of them try transponders 17, 21, and 32 those are in 80's here.

actually the uplink reports just showed them moving stuff around on e-5 , i believe digiblur had already updated the program to distingush between 5 and ceil-2 .

my guess is they are shifting the feeds to the san transponder on e-5 in prep for the move to ciel-2...


I'll believe it is on ciel-2 when the tables get updated to show them on ciel-2

He added the Ciel-2 spot TIDs, but probably no the CONUS TIDs, which are probably recycled. I have little doubt Ciel-2 is partially powered up.

It keeps telling me that my stuff has been switched and I need to go to help. Then it says I need to reaim my dish. What all stuff should i be selecting
Dish 1000.2 110/119?/129 and a dish500 @ 61.5
AM250/locals/turbo HD gold.

That is correct. The ConUS Tps will reuse the TIDs. The only indication of ConUS changes will be moves and/or Signal Strength changes.

I was just asking my wife via phone (I am at work) to check our Dish Network HD Receiver, she tells me that the satellites listed there are 110, 119, and 129. I was surprised at this because we live in the metro area of Atlanta, GA and I figured that 129 would really only service the West Coast of the US. I'm not complaining, believe me!

Once in a great while we can get some channels, but not all of them for a period of time. Does anyone have an idea of how they balance the loads of these satellites? I suppose that one sat carries some channels and another carries other channels, and the Atlanta local channels would be "spot beamed?"

Is there a link or thread in this forum that gives the breakdown of which channels are carried on which satellite? Any extra information would be great.

Pull the power plug for 15 seconds. Plug it back in and let it reboot and reload.

What do the different transponders mean? On transponder 14 I get 25 SignalS on 17 i get 70 SignalS ?

 

[RandallA]

This is awesome news! Finally, very nice signals.

 

[digiblur]

Very strong signals here on a Dish300. It's a hot one.

Look at my signature or click TheList tab at the top of this page. It is updated everytime the uplink reports are ran.
