last Wed all channels scrambled, so I deleted and rescan with new July bin file. Still did not get the missing channals.
My Sat is a dish 500(installed by Dish, still using dish downstairs until I can get missing channals, at least sports ESPNs) I think this is 110/119

well if you are running dish and on same line it will not let you get the channels need to run different coax cable with disq switch, from lnb in order to work...

I went under the house and unhooked bedroom cable going to living room receiver and hooked it directly from Pansat 2700a to the split from the back of the Sat. the split is not on the Sat but down the line about 6 ft.

Thanks to all, I checked settings they were correct, I unhooked one more wire on the back of living room receiver, still nothing, I then did a tp scan selecting everything and all channels came in. Don't know what happened but things work now.

I am planning on getting another receiver for the livingroom, should I get another Pansat 2700a to be consistant, or should I get another type to be diverse or would that be more trouble with finding diff. loaders and bin files.
If I should get another type any suggestions. Thanks

this will be your choice on hoe much you want to spend, and if your willing to learn how another Receiver works.

if you do I recommend a Viewsat or Captive works.

best of luck...
