Drift/Pixelation Etc.

[bkushner]

I started having some Pixelation problems on the 61.5. When I do a system check I am getting LNB Drift -6 (used to be -5) on the 110/119 but nothing mentioned for the 61.5

Does the 61.5 show up for LNB Drift?

Yes 61.5 does....I just replaced a 61.5 LNB with a new LNB which is typically the solution....look in the details area after you get a check switch done or look in the system info screen after it gives you 100%of the system info test.

an lnb drift? as in you dish is moving? better get out the ol' wrench

Dish Network will replace LNB Drift detected lnb's for free because they were too cheap to pay for good lnb's. It is a manufacturer's defect and Dish won a settlement against the manufacturer.

Some maufacturers put in cheap parts in LNBs, which caused the LNB to not be able to keep the frequencies seperate. It's kind of like getting a cheap dime store AM radio, and the stations kind of bleed in on one another.
