I am having problems setting up my viewsat ultra v2 to a dish 500. I am using a dish plus lnb and has 119, 110 and uhf ports on lnb, My question is i live in los banos , ca and we only use one cable to pick up both sat's aimed at 110 with the cable hooked up on the 110 west side of the lnb and ran direct to receiver. k iam having problems picking up the east channels and i have been trying for the past 3 days. tried moving dish to different positions on my house still no luck. pick up strong signal in the 99 and 100 for quality and 78 to 80 for the signal. But still when i do auto sat scan i am only getting the west channels and no east like ppv and some premiums. My setings in atennae setup are
echo star 10,11 110.0w
lnb power - on
lnb type- ocs-dp
lnb freq- 11250
22khz- off
tp freq- 12224
diseqc 1.0- port 2
motor- off
legacy sw- none

echostar 7
lnb freq-on
lnb type- ocs-dp
lnb freq- 11250
22khz-off
tp freq- 12224
diseqc 1.o - port 1
motor= off
legacy sw- none
these are the settings i am using am i doing something wrong or is there something i need to do different to get all my channels to come in?

Elias Loreto,

Things to try.
Find your dish position using dishpointer com Make sure the Skew is correct for your location.
Move the cable to the 119 side of the LNB.
Try setting your LNB type to Standard.

You should see the Satellite ID at the top of the screen.
When scanning Echo 7 set TP freq to 12239

Post your results.
Good luck
J

Sorry for the late reply,
I have had luck using the STANDARD LNB setting. I am not sure why.
Plymouth or King could probably answer this.
