Ok, I finally got dish to come out and give me my locals(148) while still preserving my current programming (Sky Angel 61.5 & Americas 150 (110/119))!
Took three tech visits but am quite happy with the results ALTHOUGH I still have a question or two.
They left with the SW64 installed and fed down to the two receivers WITHOUT 61.5 inserted. After I left I reattempted the setup (SEE CURRENT SETUP BELOW) and the result was the same when doing the switch check (with 129 install checked. ~ 50 tests):
I know it "should" read (110, 110, 119, 119, 148, 148, xx, xx) respectively.
I get a signal from all sats and can view the channel although every so often when going between channels on different satellites I get a switch error... Wish I had the specific message in front of me now so I could relay it...
Any insight or help?!?! I have put both the current and desired setups below so you can tell me if I did something wrong / to help with giving suggestions!
Thanks,
Matthew Knapp
