Hi there, i just got a cw800, i also have a cs6000, which was working fine , now that i have the cw8 hooked up i cannot get all the channels when i scan both boxes, i have 2 dishes, with the lnb on the both of them for the 110/119. i get all the channels from the 119 but not all from the 110, not even the locals...any help is appreciated...and btw great job guys.... ;)

Ok let me see if I got it, 2 dishes setup identical, each reciever has it's own dish with dual LNB's. If that is the case swap recievers and scan again. If the same reciever still doesn't get the channels then check your LNB settings. If the box that did find the channels doesn't anymore I'd check cable ends and dish positioning then LNB's probably in that order.

Hi there, i switched the boxes and it worked o.k. but now the cw dosen't see the 119 after i switched it back...i purchased a sat finder yesterday and i will try to get up there this weekend...thanks ;)
i tried the cw at my friends house but she only has one sat dish and it did come in good over there that 110sat anyway...at least i know that it is not the box
