    Default No ppv showing on 110 sat scan

    110w is locked in.... 95 signal and around 80 quality. I've done multiple scans with different setting and still no sd ppvs. Also missing some other channels like a&e, history, comedy central. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    post your sat settings as they appear on your sat screen.
    include info on what kind of LNBFs are on your pan and any switches involved.

    I will do that in the morning. I'm leaning towards old lnb my self. Do you know if these go bad over time? They are probably 6 years old and have sitting in a barn.

    yep ... LNB could be bad but changing it won't help if you have a bad wire or switch. Sounds like you are doing initial set up for this LNB/sat dish... could be your dish needs to be tweaked or your LNB settings are incorrect... as hedley says post your all your settings, plus your LNB & dish types...

    One question. are you getting good signal on the channels but they are reading scrambled? IF so there is nothing wrong with your set up.

    Switched out the LNB on my 110 dish. Rescanned channels and now I get PPV Movie channels. The only thing I changed was the LNB. It also seemed to improve my overall quality on that satellite.

    So I don't know if this part of the same problem or not.... but today I noticed there was a thunderstorm rolling in and there went my signal on both 110 and 119. Is this a common occurrance??? I have BEV as well and this does not happen.

    depending on your location & the intensity of the storm this can happen to any sat... make sure your dish is grounded or you may have worse problems...

    So now I can't find 119 at all! So here's what happened..... I two seperate dishes. 1 with 110 and 1 with 119. 110 no issues. perfect signal, perfect quality. 119 on the other hand is a no go. Can't find signal and when i do it's locking to 110. When I find 110, how do I then find 119???

    sounds like a bad switch. try connecting directly to the 119 sat with no switch.

    I did try that. Still getting 110. The funny thing is, I can get 110 without even trying, but 119 still eludes me.

    My dish does not have a skew adjustment. Will the metal bracket still work?

    So since I already have 110 locked, should 119 be there after installing bracket and lnb?
