Help setting up bell 20" dish for Charlie

[agepag]

Well it seems since I am the only one of my friends with an account here I get to ask all the questions. My buddy has a phillips 2700 and has been running an old dtv 18" dish. Last week he go his hands on a 20" bell dish that looks just like a dish500, so he went out and bought a sw21 and is using a old dtv lnb along with the bell lnb. The question is how do we find bith 110 and 119? I was able to find the 119, but when I locked it up and tryed turning the dish (like a steering wheel) I lost the 119 and coulld't fing the 110? Another thing I think I read was to try and find one sat at a time, when we tryed to use the signal meter with the sw21 it seemed to block out any power to the meter, so I took off the sw21 and right away we got the beeping. Is there any links or instructions on how to point and aim these 20" dishes......

Thanks

P.S. When I went and did a check switch it did bot find any this and all there was were "x" on the screen, I also did not check the dish 3 - 4 - or super dish......

Thanks

Does it have the skew angles on it? if it does Search for a sat calculator and find the skew angles for your area :)

If you mean does this dish turn like a "steering wheel" then yes it does. The angle for his area are as follows, 119- 230@26 and 110 - 220@31, now it dosn't say which way to rotate the dish, but I figured that wouldn't be to hard to find with the signal meter. I need to know the steps on how to set up the 2700 for me to find these sats. Do I first fing the 110? then turn the dish and find the 119? then hook up the sw21? I have never done one of these dish's.....

Thanks

I just saw that it says North Latitude 43.7 (+90° to -90°)
West Longitude 79.42 (0° to +360°) Whatever that means?

I believe from the back of the dish the right side lnb is for 119 adjust your skew angle and you should be able to hit both birds their is a calculator that will give you the skew angle to hit both birds
