OK
good start, you have sat 110, my next question is, is your dish set up to receive both 110 & 119 sats? If so then go to anntenna setup, change sat name to echostar 119,then apply these settings.
LNB POWER: ON
LNB TYPE: STANDARD
LNB FREQ: 11250
22KHZ: OFF
TP FREQ: 12239
DISEQC: PORT 1
MOTOR: OFF
LEGACY SW: NONE
Now I have Diseqc switch on port 1, as I am assumming thats what you have sat 119 lnb plugged into. If this is correct, then you should be able to pick up 119.
good luck

If my uncle can pick up 119 with just the one lnb on his extreme can i do the same on mine cause he picks it up off of mine but i cant....lol....so if i have to put my clamp on and my other lnb let me know plz, i am really stuck here, i have had this problem with this since i got it and they told me nothing is was wrong with it before, i did factory reset on several occasions, i've tried other settings that people have posted, someothers asked if i had some kinda tilt on my dish which i dont but why would i get 119 on echostar 7 but nothing on the others and why is it still reading in the corner echostar 10,11 110.0W ???

Should i do another factory reset?

I forgot to mention that we just moved the dish to a more open area, we thought that 110 kept moving cause our signal kept dropping, but infact where we had it before was right off the balcony of our apartment and someone pulled it from the wall.
But now we are getting 99-100% continuously fluctuating between those numbers, so i wanted to know if i should try the factory reset again and see if starting from scractch again helps it???

If your sat is getting this high of a signal you should be set just try to snug all your bolts and you should be good to go......ricklbert

When you say your uncle is getting 119 on his receiver, did you confirm this by going into the antenna setup, and see echo star 119 in the top right hand of your screen. I know you are frustrated, but I am just tying to understand your setup. I install Sat's for a living, and I to run into troubles from time to time. If you where on bev before, and moved your dish to get dave, then you probably have a single lnb setup, and you can only get on sat at a time. So have some patients and we will get you going.
You can also take some pic's of your dish, any switches that may be hooked up, and a pic of yours and your uncles antenna setup screen and e-mail them to me.

I dont have my switch hooked up, i took my other lnb of about a month ago, and yes he was getting 119 and 110 off of the one lnb, now that is what is really confusing me...I have never seen that before, he's got all the chanels i have plus ones i dont for some reason he's even got two porn stations still....lol....but i just want my ppv channels UFC is on in three days and i cant miss this one....lol...

The switch i have is for a coolsat they told me it would work with mine...but for some reason it would not read anything i went through setup like mad on that just to find a signal but i was always flatline...

There is no way to get 110 & 119 on one LNB so some where you were confused one lnb on sat so you must be pointed at 110 if you move your dish a fraction to the west & up a hair that sat you find there will be 119 the you would scan in those channels ..you need a lnb & a switch with the dish you have to receive both sats .... call you local sat guy for a case of beer & you will be a happy camper ...cheers

Face33 is right, I have been installing and repairing sat's for 30 years, and there is now way you can get both sat's off of one lnb, 1: you have to have 2 lnb's, and 2: the dish has to be skewed to get both sats. where are you located??

This is exciting. It's like watching ER where all the best doctors coming together trying to save a patient ( famoushiguy ). Can he be saved?

I live in Windsor Ontario Canada, and what is a skew?

Is that like to tilt it, cause a friend of mine has the same as me and he's got the switch and the clamp and his is pointed the same as mine and he is getting both.

I hooked up my switch and my clamp, and I am trying to located 119 i am locked on 110, I am gonna try reversing the lnbs to cause alot of people have 110 in the center of there dish and 119 to the left (standing behind the dish) and some have it reverse 119 in the center and 110 to the right, I think that is what is really confusing me.

But if all dont work then I will take your advise and phone a satilite man to come and set my dish.

Try to set 119 in the middle, because the signal is weaker than 110. 110 is to right and below of 119. take into account the azimut and elevation.
