I receive all the channels on Echo 3 and none of the channels on Echo 12. Most of the HBO are on 12 and I am not receiving them. Signal strength on Echo 3 40/60 on all tp. No signal on any tp on Echo 12. Use three individual 300 dishes for 110, 119, and 61.5 with cascading SW21X and SW21 at a south Florida fishing cabin, VIP211K. Any help would be great as I am paying for HD and HBO and am only getting 3 HBO of 9 that I should. I have switched the Lbn and thats not the problem.
Echostar 3 and Echostar 12

What are some of your signal readings? There's always 129 if you can snag LOS to it.
repoint
You sound like you may have a bad LNB. One other thing HBO is on 72.7 now. So you should think about repointing your dish to it. About the only thing on 61.5 anymore are locals. I'm looking at HBO TP right now & it shows to be 13 on 72.7. The combo of 110, 119, & 61.5 is no longer a good one since the HD channels were move recently.

That is partially correct. Some of the HDs are on 72.7 but there are also some on 61.5. 110/119/61.5 is not the correct install anymore as they want you to use 61/72/77 or 110/119/129.
Hmm... 24 is also from Echo12. That throws that out.
I'm thinking you have something wrong with your equipment as Echo12 covers South Florida. Try swapping LNBs... getting rid of all the switches and just using one dish to lock, etc.
On 129 and 61.5.
Just how South of Florida are you?

I now see that Echo 3 and Echo12 have completely different footprints at their fringes. Where I am at right now I can get good signal on Echo 3 with 3ft dish and need a 12ft to receive Echo 12. Thanks for your help

Not a problem. There's also the Sat Maps link on the top of every page you can use.
