Can anyone help me with this setup? I can't get a signal strength reading.Can't figure out what I am missing.Can I use the dp34 switch that is installed with the super dish? I really need some help here. Thanks

You have loaded coolsat 4000 134p

Connect the cable from the sats to the input of dp-34 in this order.....

119-1, 110-2, 105 or 121-3

If you use a channel list it must be for Dish Pro....if 12224 is the first transponder in the 119 transponder list then delete it from the list....

In menu/installations/dish setting select the 119 sat and change setting to this....Save after you make changes to each sat...

LNB Power--------ON
LNB Type --------single
LNB Freq---------11250
22khz-------------off
Diseqc-----------=1.0
Committed /LNB #----------- 1
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Now select 110 sat......set as above except change
Committed to 2
----------------------------------------------------------------
Now to the the 105 or 121 sat set the same as 119-110 except....
Change
LNB Freq to 10750
Committed to 3
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

You should get green bars on all 3 sats.....if not check connections, dish pointing.....

If you have loaded a channel list then exit menu, and wait a couple of minutes until video comes in.....

If no channel list loaded, then run a auto scan on each sat......

NAGRA1 Thanks works good I have a good signal now and some channels but most say scrambled or bad signal. in the guide after reloading working Working5.2 DPCoolSat channel list. most channels say no info and scrambled when i try and view any of them. At least i am making progress.Hardly any channels on 110. 119 seems be be fairly well populated. any more help would be appreciated. Thanks :)

Sounds like a bad channel list....

You have a 105 or 121 superdish?

105 dish

Recheck your LNB setting....try 11250 for the lnb freq for the 105 sat....see if you still get green bars...

You can try to Auto scan each sat....if you screw up your channel list to bad, then just reload it or find another....

There is one here in the file section under Free-to-air/coolsat
Dish pro 105-110-119.rar

Haven't been able to find that channel list. Haven't tried 1 that had 105 on it.
Also when i set the frequency to 11250 I get green bars but go back to the few PPVs that i was getting and now they are scrambled. When i set freq. to 11200 i get red bars but i can view the few PPVs that are there. It's got me confused to say the least. Really appreciate your help. :)
Will keep searching for list

People post these channel list all over the net, and some work ok and some don't....best to make your own.....

10750 would be the normal lnb freq for the 105, and 11250 for 119 and 110....

The url i gave you you need to hxxp to http

I tried several different list I found on the net, they all works with mixed results. I finally used Channel Master and made my own, set me up some favorites list, and deleted unwanted channels....Made my own DN line up.....add locals ect.....

You most likely have a bad channel list causing your problem.

Just reset lnb freq to 11250 for 119 and 110, 10750 for 105....anytime you load a new channel list....

I had the same problem. I think the list in the download section is bad.
