Need help with EA.2 new LNBF install

[ilfoman]

Since I don't need any of the channels on 77, I replaced the triple EA LNBF with the new EA.2 version for 72.7 and 61.5.
72.7 comes in OK, but I can't find 61.5. The signal on 72.7 is certainly better than I was getting with the triple LNB
I read somewhere that there are new angle settings for this new LNBF, but I can't find them anywhere.
I'm wondering if I also need to adjust the skew for this to work. My ZIP is 04401. Any help would be appreciated.

What dish are you using?

Dish website has the dish manuals with settings for all zip codes.

A couple of things come to my mind, first did you verify that you are getting 72 on the correct lnb? Second, is the matrix cleared, sometimes receivers do not pick up sats if you ran the check switch and it is not in the matrix.

Run a check switch with no sat feed (1 of 38). Reconnect sat feed and test again to recognize EA.2 dish correctly. I'll look up the settings for you as soon as I get my van back...getting a tire fixed.

For zip 044XX set the dish to elevation 38, skew 94, azimuth is around 210

The 1000.4 EA dish has 3 LNBs the Ea 1000.2 dish has 2 LNBs are you trying to mount the EA.2 LNB on a 1000.4 dish?

Using a Turbo dish. It worked OK with the triple LNBF, but signal levels were low.

The skew is set to 100, so it's quite a bit out. I'll check again when it stops raining. Thanks guys.
