I just bought a K-Box pro.
How do I go about scanning all the channels.
I have 110 on one LNB, and 118.8 and 119 on the circular LNB.
Do I perform the scan under Dish Setting and do I need to scan individual satellites or do I use auto scan for each individual satellite.
There is also blind scan. Do I need to use this?

Sada,

Do I need to scan 119 at all or when doing 118.8 blind scan it will pick up 119.

Sada,

Which switch is better SW21 or or Diseq for K-Box?

Does one switch give better signal strength compared to other.

diseqc is better,
what kind of signals are u getting
65-70% are ok,
u will get all channels on 118.8
it also depends on ur dish
atleast 33 inch is recommend

menu, dish settin, 118.8
lnb type single,lng freq 11250, lnb 22 khz off
diseqc ..should be the one u are using..change it to 1, 2,3,4 and see the sat name of top should say 118.8
( i mean both should match)..
diseqc 1.1 off
leg switch off

for 119 the only thing difference is u just need to change lnb type to universal..

for other dishes just used the normal method

Sada,

On 118.8, my signal strength is as follows:

Strength 90
Quality 47

I noticed last night that I was not able to get NDTV during the cloudy and rain, as the picture was craking up.

Is the quality of 47% too low and therefore would I need to realign the dish? Please let me know.

bestbuy i mean boy lol
quality is too low, u need to tweak ur dish from outside,
easy way to do is to turn on beep for sound under option, then go out and tweak it u will hear difference in sound so u can easily tell if u have good signal without looking at tv..
