I am a "mover." I have DC locals because I actually live in one of the markets that I cannot get locals over the satellite, Dish or Directv. One of my locals has been moved to 61.5. It used to be on 110. I cannot see the 110 spoltbeam, so I could not get that channel. I can see the 61.5 beam. Is there a way to force my receiver to see the new channel on 61.5? I think once I get my new smartcard, I would automaticaaly start to see it. Is there a way to see it before I get the smartcard.
Thanks in Advance
 
If the receiver does not see a channel on one satellite, but does see it on another, it will use the satellite from which it gets signal.

If however it sees signal for a particular channel on both satellites, it has a database that tells it which to prefer based on your account and zipcode.
