OK I am parked at channel 199 NTV I have full bars on both. on sat Echostar 6 ill give it a few hours. I must be missing something somewhere. Do the money symbols go away when the channel gets descrambled?

199? I don't know if that's up with nfps. Park at CNN or something. Echostar 7, Echostar 8/10 and Anik F3 are the possible sats.

By the way guys,, keep in mind there are a few others satlites up there that are almost right on top of each other,, I have set up the satlite dish had great signal bars along with all the channel infomations,
however I was unable to get a pic,, this was driving me nuts for day, "here to find out I had it set to the another satlite",,
take my word those satlite are damn near on top of each other,, make sure your on the right satlite,,

I hope this can help,,,

Well I was set to cnn on echo 7 all night and got nothing. I have about 4 sats programmed. When I'm in antenna setup it says locked to nimq ## in green letters. Buttman302's explanation seems to fit my situation to a tee. When I get home I'll try just programming only one sat.

I went through it with my DB500, with antenna setup green bars it says locked in the whole works,, but was on the wrong sat,, I think that might the problem,, tell you it's within 1/4" to 1/2" in.. of each other,, I know it's a pain in the azz just don't give up "andrew" I got faith in you buddy,, and you got the right person gopalmm2 helping you as well,

if you get it working let us know

good luck
