Trouble Peaking 111

[bluereef]

Just moved to New Mexico from Florida, Use stacked LNB Star Choice beer can lnb's with 2 Wingard 33 x 36 inch dishes.

Found SD sat no problem peaked just fine

Now 111 found the sat get in the high 90"s (TSN 280) and the network feeds and on some HD RED 39 on others. Got up at 5 AM today to peak the dish when it was in the box and still 39 RED RDS 240.

LNB skew of 6 degrees in New Mexico for 111

Also is there a way to increase the db %?

Some HD channels even though have high 80's no picture.

Star Choice resent map to receivers still no go.

Any insight of where I went wrong?

check your lines and connectors.

I am guessing you are missing a few transponders. You may need to slightly tweak your dish. what channel are you using to peak your dish? For 111, I suggest using 711 (one of the TVA)

711

On Channel 711 I am getting a 45 in yellow with a picture. I am missing 8 HD channels.

Some are in the high green and some high yellows that i am receiving now

your dish isn't peaked. is your mast plumb?

From Deep South Winnipeg...

I setup my 75cm elliptical dish and focused on peaking on 107, then "let 111 fall into place" - ended up with great SD signals, but spotty HD signals...

After tweaking the dish - maxing the signal on 111, I have lower signals on 107, but HD and SD coverage that made it through recent storms without a dropout.

I'd focus on 111, then adjust to get 107...
