My Hard Ware:

Dishnetwork 1000 Plus
4 switch connection..
Not sure about exactly what type of LNBs currently I do have.

PROBLEM:
119 - Scanned and getting most of the Channels
110 - Scanning and getting channels but Some time Q= 0 and sometimes 35. I am not sure what was the reason.
118.7 (Anik F3): Signal = 75, Q=0 always. Not able to scan any of the channels.

I used to get the channels from all of the 110, 118, 119 and 129 2 years ago. I stopped using my dish recently I started using FTA but I do see the above issue.

Could you tell me what might be causing the problem with 110 & 118.7??

I am thinking of changing the LNBS,,.. I am not sure will it solve the problem.. Could you please tell me what kind of lnbs I need to buy??

Thanks in advance.

What do you mean Ground First?

My actual installation was done by dishnetwork professional and I was able to watch All channels years ago.

Can you tell what kind of LNB that I need to buy for 110 & 118.7 ??

Post your settings, as they appear in antenna settings, for each satellite that you are pointing at.

Do what Stan asked and also take a look at the LNB and tell us what is says on it. Or better yet post a photo or two of it. You should also keep your sub for when the dark times hit and also since someone needs to sub to keep Charlie around.
