You need to move your dish 9 degrees towards East to get 110 or get a Twin LNB to get both 110, 119 one wire to Receiver

I have a problem with PPV. Although, I receive most of PPV chanels, but after about 10 minutes on a single channel, the channel starts to fade out and displays a message "Scrambled or no Signal". But when I swithch back to other channels, they all work fine and when I go back to the same PPV channel, I can see the picture again!!! The channel lasts for another 10-15 minutes and again fades away. This only seem to happen with the PPV channel and none of the other channels have this problem.

I am using a Pansat 2500.

This has nothing to do with the weather as it is mostly clear when this happens. But the symptoms are very similar to when the weather gets bad, but only for the PPV channels???

Any help or ideas will be appricaited.....

and dish may need to be realigned slightly if the cable,connections or switch don't resolve it..

Because U say it ONLY happens with PPV's, that is more of an indication of a bad dish alignment, that needs a slight adjustment...but the other possibilities mentioned are easy cheap simple fixes too..

if U have 2 LNB's, flip flop the cables and antenna receiver settings, and see what happens..

tie/connect another LNB to the present one (this is called a Poormans dish and is simple and cheap) and do some VERY minor dish aligning adjustments, and run the cables to a disque switch (same ports as below) and then to your receiver, and input antenna/dish settings into the receiver

settings...
LNB type - standard
freq-11250
119- disque port-#1, 110-port#2
power on
scan all
22-off
etc
