How do you know when your 8psk board is going? I am getting a few things constantly happening as of late. First, the screen goes to a blue-green colour. Second, getting "Bad or No Signal" a lot and lastly, pixelation distoration quite often. I have replaced the board before a few months back for the same issues but getting the same ones back. Any ideas what might be causing this.

Settings are as follow:
Bin: 119
LNB Type: Standard
Frequency: 11.250
119: port 1
110: port 2
129: port 3

Types of LNB's, switch and dish you have would help us a bit.

All 3 on a dish 500???

That could be the problem, the D500 dish does not have the receive beamwidth for the 110,119,129 combo, it was designed for 110/119 or 82/91 depending on who you have as a provider.

And are they standard DP LNB's or aftermarket standards. (not Dish nutworks)

The LNB for 129 should be on a separate dish.

Or mount all 3 on an old D1000 pan and LNB arm.

all 3 lnbs are aftermarket. 110/119 on dish 500. one is actaully a dtv lnb. ports 1 and 2. and 129 is a seperate dish, an old 18" dtv dish on port 3
