If you remove the 61.5 dish you will lose several public interest channels. If you have an HD receiver you will lose the "VOOM" channels and the HD Demo channel. Also Sky Angel is on 61.5.

Besides dishes are a dime a dozen these days, especially if your LNB's are legacy (i.e. not Dish Pro).

Swing the dish around to 129. You can pick up all of your locals there.

Entirely wrong. Not a single one of the Memphis locals are on 129. Posting wildly inaccurate information is not helpful.

chaddux- why are you such a dick? How about "are you sure John I think that may be incorrect"?

That is too vague. You have to kill bad info right away with clear, unambiguous language.

I would have said, "Sorry Jacob, but that is incorrect. At this time none of the memphis stations are on 129. Anyway, the original poster already correctlu mentioned that the Memphis station in question moved to 110° not 129°"

See ya
