Just purchased a 1000.4 (eastern arc) to get the new HD channels. I have been trying to lock into 72.7 and have had little success.
On my VIP622 receiver I have run check switch with no cable attached and covered 77 & 61.5 LNBF's with foil. On one try I got 61.5 satellite on LNB that should be 72.7. Most times I can get 61.5 but not 77 or 72.7.
This is not my first Dish install and have rechecked plum on arm and elevation, skew, etc. Got my dish setup data from DishPointer.com. Satellite found is always 61.5. I have also tried using a meter (SF-95L) and it always only finds 61.5.
Could someone please share how they got this new Dish to install correctly?
I spoke with Dish Depot and they say that 1000.4 is very hard to install and does not behave or install like any others. They commeted that even installers are having troubles.
Help and suggestion would greatly be appreciated. Thank You!
