i have fortec ultra converted to puff. All the south asian channels are working except sun and ktv. It gives amessage call for free equipment upgrade. how to get sun and ktv. please help.
12601 or 12602 or 12603 (V) are the same - different scans and angles would give slightly different TPs. The channels are there as 6160 and 6161. You would get them on a TP scan of 12603 (V). You might see them as TV 6160 for SUNTV and TV 6161 for K TV. If you do and if your software allows you to rename them do so, otherwise view them with their new names.
hi nalin I added 12601(V) TP and did a TP Scan echo 3 61.5. No signal strength and 0 programs found. What else should I do my receiver is a converted puff fro, fortec ultra. thanks
I haven't had a chance to do any testing since morning. However, if you delete all the channels (menu/channel edit/delete) and do a blind scan, all the active channels will come in. Then if what you think should be there and you can't see, look at the channels which say TV 6160 etc and you will probably find the channels. Renaming of channels names is just for clarity - you don't have to rename if you do not want to.

Most recent changes to the Dish Channel List page:

From tp 18 to 27 - 6160 SUNTV (Transitional channel as it is being removed from this location)
From tp 12 to 27 - 6161 K TV (Transitional channel as it is being removed from this location) }

what i hear is 6160 6161 are temp channels and very soon they will be removed. you need 30" dish or dish 500+ and point to 118 sat with the special lnb for 118/119. it is important also to check skew angle for your location. if you are testing 110, then facing the dish 110 hangs in neck in center and 118/119 lnb is fit in right side of bracket(and also skewed anticlockwise 30 deg by rotating the 110 neck)
As known you need to tweak 110 and 118 to get atleast 50% quality as trade off to get both.
