My settings on receiver are

For 118
TP Freq- 001 11715 (v)
LNB type - OCS-DP
LNB freq- 10750
22 KH tone - Off
Diseq 1.0 -- 4
Diseq 1.1 - off
Legacy SW- Off

For 119
TP Freq- 028 12516(v)
LNB type - OCS-DP
LNB freq- 10750
22 KH tone - Off
Diseq 1.0 -- 4
Diseq 1.1 - off
Legacy SW- Off

I have tried following thing to fix it

1. Factory reset
2. try to re align the dish
3. Change cables on dish to Diseq switch
4. Direct connect without switch

I am not sure what else I can try, I missing all my important channels, any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

LNB type is wrong
Set to "Standard or single"

OSC-Dp is DishPro and you are not using dishpro unless your using a DN branded dish. They don;t make a 30" dish and they don't make a dish with just 119 & 118 either.

Even changing to standard issue remains the same.

Try LNB freq 11250 on 110, 119, 129 and LNB freq 10750 on 118

Try LNB freq 11250 on 110, 119, 129 and LNB freq 10750 on 118
11250 will pick up everything. I had similar issue and changed the freq to 11250 and it picked up everything like magnet.

So I got my new LNB and the issue remains the same, I even directly connect to the receiver without the switch but no luck, If I change the freq to 11250 I am not getting anyhing no 118 and no 119. Guys please help this is getting on my nerves now.

From your op you are missing or not getting signal on all the horizontal (L) tp's on both 118 and 119 going by your list so I would say you have something wrong in your settings or a power issue.

Yes i have tried 10750 and I was getting all the channels before so power issue may be not, i also did check the power back to LNB using multimeter I am getting 13.75 V. I change only cable from reciever to switch I am going to change the cable from LNB to switch so lets see if that helps.

Let us know how things turn out...had a problem when I got mine with it running my motor plus missing some of the horizontal tp's...bought another power supply or adapter with more amps and it solved the problem...not saying that is your problem but thought I would throw it out there as a possibility.

If the LNB's are the "Standard" type and not the Dish DP or DPP type, then 13.75 volts at the LNB is not enough to switch to the "H" polarity transponders.

Did you select an "H" polarity transponder and see if the voltage goes to +18 VDC? (plus or minus a half a volt)

If it doesn't change then somethings wrong with the receivers LNB type settings or the power supply circuit that supply's the DC voltage for the LNB power.

Or it could be a bad coax, bad connector, or a short in the coax somewhere.

Standard LNB's (or legacy LNB's) use +13 VDC to switch to the "V" transponders, and +18 VDC to switch to the "H" transponders.

The Dish (or Bell) DP or DPP type LNB's do not use the +13 and +18 volts, but use band stacking for the "H" and "V" transponders, so you have to use the OCS-DP or Dish setting for those type of LNB's)

11250 only on 110. Leave the other two on 10750. Mine is working on these settings.

Alright guys I think I found the culprit, it was a bad cable from LNB to the switch, after I put on the new cable I got signal on all TP's. Thanks guys for all good support.

Glad you got it going...that is the way it goes with this stuff sometimes...just a process of elimination.
