I have a T4 running great on 91&82. I got another dish, Digiwave with 3 LNB on the an oval dish. I ran a direct line from the middle LNB which is marked 110. I pointed it with finder and locked on good. Problem is when I goto dish pointing in settings I get a signal and it jumps around wont lock on. I tried all the different settings TPs to no luck.
I went to PID setting in menu. Went 110 changed the freq, and boom it was there. Did a scan channels loaded. I did this manual way for all freq, that would show a signal. All channels loaded.
I go back to dishpointer setting I still get nothing. I didn't try 119 but did have at strong signal with finder. Any thoughts on how to get birds to show in dishpointer instead of doing it manually?

Not sure why you are asking for the T5 file when you are using a T4 box. Use appropriate file for the model of box you have.

They are for the south bird changes. North do not have any change.

Middle lnb should be 119, on a 3 lnb oval dish used for dishnet.

As Fn59 said, 119 should be the center satellite on a 3 LNB setup, with 110 on the right (looking from the back of the dish) and 129 on the left, then setup your Diseqc switching for each satellite.

Also to align the 3 LNB dish you center on 119W, then skew the dish for the other two satellites, to find 119W use TP 12457R as the first TP in the list on 119 is a spotbeam, and your more then likely not in that beam.
