I recently just purchased a triple LNB dish to go with my new directv HD reciever... I'm having problems recieving a signal from the 119 dish. I can get a good signal on Sat A 101 and Sat C 110... just not on 119. I'm in Pembina North Dakota... any ideas???

Hey brainchill, I just went through hell trying to hit the 119 with a second 18"dish. I could get the 101 and the 110 from the same location but not the 119. I had a tree off to the right of my lines for the 101 and the 110. It is amazing how much a few degrees is over a long distance, but the tree was the problem. It did not interfere with the 101 or the 110 but it completly blocked the 119. I don't know if that is your problem but once I moved the dish I hit the 119 on the first shot. JWH

In the past we have been able to get 101 and 119. Now for some reason we can not get 119 but 101 still comes in. The 119 exponder 32 receives the signal but when we switch over on the menu to main menu, the exponder defaults to 25 without any signals
