I am presuming you are setting up a sat. dish, what type of dish is it ?
You say you are getting a signal, what is telling you this, are you using a signal meter ?
If so, you are probably pointed at a different satellite other than the 101,110, and 119. these are used for D* others are used for DISH I think they use the 129 as well ...
I am presuming that you are talking about DBS set up.

Need more info ....

Also, this should be in the Directv or DISH Network forum

Sorry..I do not know much about satelites. hmm.. There is a "S" bar that says 75% and a Q bar (I think) that also says 75%. It says it is getting signal from a "echo7" or something..

What is 101,110, and 119?

IS this enough information? I apologise if it is not.

Sorry..where is Network/Direct TV fourms?

Maybe, maybe not.....
He could be using a FTA receiver, (which I am not up to date on)
And trying to get legit channels.

Some of the info he mentioned, I am not familiar with ...

i am closing. he is not going to answer since a "ban" was mentioned.

to the original poster. if you are a true FTA person, pm "Iceberg" or "PSB" for your reason and they will reopen as they see fit.
