Disappearing Channels

[egrichards]

We recently upgraded our 3ABN system from the old workhorse Manhattan receiver to a Pansat6000 so we could time shift record the stuff we wanted to watch. The receiver works great for 3ABN, Hope, Esperanza, and their associated radio channels, but we've lost LLBN a couple of weeks ago. Is anyone else having this problem?

LLBN working good here.... maybe you need to re-scan or re-align your dish.

For some reason I lost all my AMC 4 channels and I re-scanned and I got them again. 3ABN is at 11822 and after I re-scanned I got it again at 11825.

I think my LNB drifts because of the heat.

welcome

LLBN is there....just saw it last night

Try a smart scan for it. It should still be there
(antenna options, smart scan)

I'll try again tonight when I get home. I've tried the smart scan a couple of times, and re-aligned the dish during the amc-4 center of box time.

 

[Mr Tony]

try a manual scan...antenna setup-->>edit satellites/Tp
select AMC4
select add

enter LLBN as
12020 frequency
H polarity
2034 symbol rate

and see if it shows a signal quality. The 3ABN & Hope channel are very strong so maybe the dish just needs to be tweaked
