how to get proper channel names

[quatro4u]

Did a blind scan and getting channels names like this

channel 1250

Is there a way to get proper channels names? or maybe load a channels list?

thanks

I have a lot of channels that say CH 1119 or something along those lines

I'm guessing you're on north so select bev
I think dish is selected by default

[The Noof]

Yes:Bev package/network scan

Pardon my ignorance, it's been a while since I've played with this. How do I select bev packages?

Push Menu Button, List pops up, scroll to Option, push it, ANOTHER LIST comes up, down to Renumbering by SID=OFF
DOWN to Renumbering Local CH=your closest location, Down to MODE=Network.
Once all is setup, do a SAT. Scan 91 & 82

I can't seem to be able to get rid of these weird names when I scan

DOes anybody have a CHLIST-C.LDB?

This is for BEV

thanks in advance

Are you hooked up to Both North & South birds ?

[quatro4u]

Only north

[dishuser]

Only north

press sat button
is bev selected?

[auggie]

The Default channel setup for Most of these FTA receivers is DISH, That's why the Re-Numbering for Bev
No confusion that way. Make sure Network is selected for Chan. Mode in Menu settings & Renumbering Local CH is set
to your Nearest Location. When you do Scans for North Birds do SAT. SCANS, not Blind Scans, and I advise not to Load any
Channel Lists, main reason is they are usually not setup for your Location or setup.

For some reason I see the channels names are changing now and becoming proper. I'm not exactly sure what changed but it seems to be updating now. thanks everyone!
