Moving to 61.5?

[cjsmigelski]

I currently have a dish 500+ and a single dish pointed at 129. I live around the Toledo, Ohio area. I am thinking of moving the dish pointed at 129 to 61.5. Is this a good idea? I currently have a signal strength of 24 to 32 for the 129 dish. and it cuts out alot.

Yes. It's a great idea! It's a simple thing. Just swing the dish over to the settings you will find on your receiver's point dish screen.

There is nothing at 129° that isn't at 61.5°.

EKB: Dish Network Channels at 61.5°
Dish Network Channels at 121°

You should also get much higher signal levels!

See ya

Everything on 129 is also on 61.5 except Fox Sports Ohio and Sports time Ohio. Where are you local HD channels at? I live south of Cleveland and have a dish 1000.2 aquiring 110/119/129 which none of those go out. I have a wing dish pointed at 61.5 and average about a 50 in signal on TP1. Instead of pointing 129 at 61.5 might look at replacing the dish 500 with a 1000.2 Only my oppinion but my service works awesome!
