i meant transponders. If you dont know what that is as well.. a transponder is basically like a "container or box" for numberous channels on a satellite. One tp can maybe hold 10-20 channels. Every Transponder has a frequency (for example 12224 Mhz), a polarity (Vertical or Horizontal for linear beam satellites) and Left and Right polarity for circular beam sats like the dish network. And finally each transponder has it's own symbol rate.. a rate of data transfer. So for example a sample dish network transponder is 12224 V 20000. 20000 is the symbol rate.

I asked you which tps you are getting because dish network's 110 satellite has about 23 tps each holding a bunch of encrypted channels. So to check you should see first if your cable that goes into your echostar receiver is coming from a switch. You have to set the right settings on your fortec to receive the 110 signal.

BTW , 110 only has GOL TV as a FTA channel i think.. nothing more!
