I am on the eastern arc satellite. I have two 622's at home and two 211's in my RV. The RV is in a campground about 150 miles north of my homw which is in the Harrisburg, PA area. I have not been able to get local stations on the eastern arc at the RV location and connot get networks from All American Direct because a mountain of trees is in the way of satellite 110 and 119. I appoached a Dish Network dealer in the area where we have the RV, to see if I could set up a Permanent disk somewhere in the campground which would be able to receive satellite 110 or 119, so I could get networks. He advised me we should bve able gto get our locals in this area. He called Dish and was told there is a problem with the spotbeam on the Eastern Arc (satellite 77, I believe) which dish hopes to correct. However, they could not give him any time frame for this. Therefore, I'm holding off trying to install a permanent dish until the spring.
I was unaware of any problems with the spotbeam, since I have no promblem receiving my locals (sd & HD) at my home.
Have any of you been aware of the problem with spotbeams on the eastern arc satellite?
