any masters at installing directvs 5 lnb satellite

[merlin9178]

Ive installed the satellite myself and is working fine but am not receiving 119. I was wondering if there was any tips or sugguestions to help with that part of the installation. It has a clear view of the sky. Is it really that hard to find or am i doing something wrong? Any tips would be great thank you

several things you want to check

first.. check the zone you are in ... next ..unplug & replug the lnb side plugs making sure they are plugged top to top & bottom to bottom...

usually if you get th 101 & 110 you should get the 119 ...

recheck all your connections

for the zone 1 is on the right ..3 is on the left looking at the dtv logo on the rear of the lnb

it is possible to have a bad lnb ... 110 & 119 come of the side lnb that you position for the zone

Don't forget that 119 is the lowest bird in the sky, so having a clear view of the sky is not the only thing you need to worry about. You should have a clear view of the horizon, and see the sunset at night, if theres a tree in the way then you may be SOL on 119. However, it could be just a bad lnb.
