Anybody else having this problem? I really prefer the Fortec ultra bins, they have a better EPG. I have tried a couple of the bins and they freeze and then go to bad or scrambled channel and then come back in. I have been using Fortec bins on my Pantec MX, with Dido Smith's latest channel list for DP. I am running a DP LNB. Any info on this matter would be appreciated.

Figured it out! I made a Noobie mistake and did not check the antenae settings. I checked that and found that it was on tone instead of using the correct settings for a Dish Pro LNB. 1 thing I could not understand is why I was not getting any quality on the 119 bird. Set it up like that anyway and it worked like a champ! When using a DP LNB always set the antenae settings like this:

- for Dish 110:
LNB: Standard
Freq: 11250
22 khz: OFF
Diseq: #2

- for Dish 119
LNB: Standard
Freq: 11250
22 khz: OFF
Diseq: #1

It definately resolved my problem! Hope this helps someone from making the same mistake.
