thanks in advance for your advice.

I have done my own installation many times to catch 110-119 sats. Last year everything was working properly when I began spontaneously losing signal in 119 sat. Verifying that the dish had not moved I thought a lnb had been damaged and I started for replacing my 2 dual eagle aspen lnbs for another 2 brand new.
As always using my old receiver coolsat I started looking for the best signal again for 119 and 110 respectively but it was then to realize that strangely when I access the menu in the settings for satellite 119 echostar and after adjusting the correct azimuth, elevation and skew for my location, I failed to find bird 119, however when I go to the menu for echostar 110, Sat 119 appears in the top banner with strong strenght and quality. Also I manage to catch sat 110 but not in the corresponding menu of my satellite receivers. Unfortunately because of all this misconfiguration I can not watch any channel of any sat eventhough my dish is corrected aimed.

I have tried to do everything to get to display the correct signal on the menu indicated: copying settings from one menu to another, using other receivers, reposition the lnbs, annul the emp Centauri 4x1 Diseqc switch and connect directly one lnb etc ... but nothing works. I wonder if there was something new in mid-2015 That change configurations. The following are my settings and equipment that I am using for many years that worked properly.

24 "oval dish.
2 DTV32 Eagle Aspen Circular Dual Output LNBs
emp Centauri 4x1 Diseqc switch
coolsat 500, Nanosat and Dreamlink receivers to catch signals

LNB Frequency ............ 11,250
TP 12224 for 110, 12297 for 119.

Any advice will be appreciated

You need mpeg 4 compatible HD boxes. Youdont mention model numbers. SD boxes no longer work. Most Transponders must be manually changed from 20000 to 21500.see http://www.satfix.to/showthread.php?190766-Latest-South-TP-s&highlight=transponders

Bypass the diseqc switch and hook directly to the lnb's when troubleshooting.

He did that. Something tells me he is using SD boxes.

only your dreamlink hd will work now for 110 and 119 and it needs a module to work

!!!Now I see!!!! I'm using SD boxes (Nanosat SE and Coolsat 500 to get signals) I didn't know these no longer work. But fortunately I also have my Dreamlink HD with SK200 8PSK Module. Now how can I change Transponders in this box please.....I'm having the same problem with this Dreamlink.

Thank you
