99s failed?

[t_h]

I noticed when the guys were installing my new 5lnb dish and hr20's yesterday that they blew through the satellite setup by hitting cancel or next on several screens.

I redid them today and both receivers said ok to 4 of the satellites (and the signal is pretty good on them) but when it gets to 99s it stops for a bit and then says "failed".

Is that a sat I'm not using or dont need? Havent skipped through all the channels yet but we've watched some locals, some kids channels and the premiums already.

I tried doing a site search earlier for an answer but it kept giving me errors. A google site search gave me a couple of hours of interesting but unrelated reading...

if i do a repeat sat. setup for some reason my
99s will fail at times too....when you check your
signal meter thru the menu if you wait long enough
you might get some readings....but my locals are on
103s & it appears yours are too....as long as you are
getting all the channels you pay for not to worry at this point...

Cool. Thanks for the quick response.

I just found out my 3 year old tv has a bad HDMI input that I didnt need until now.

Didnt want to find out 3 years from now that I had a busted switch or lnb and just didnt need it until then!
