I don't know if I am the only one that is having this problem, but maybe other folks have experienced this and can help me with an answer.
On my
Mercury II remote, I push the EPG (Electronic Program Guide) button and I get a nice screen that looks like a program guide. (Which is mostly black boxes, but the channel names are there.)
If I push the "Current" button, nothing seems to happen.
If I push the "9 Days" button, the "Moving to Satellite Position" yellow box comes up onto the screen.
At this point everything "seems" to freeze up. (I have even left it in this condition overnight hoping that it would find what it was looking for, but to no avail.)
I think what is happening, is that the dish is moving to a satellite where it can obtain the information that I have asked it for, but maybe I don't have "that" satellite programmed into the Mercury II receiver.
A. Does anyone ever use their EPG Button?
B. Does anyone know why the message "Moving to Satellite Position" is coming up onto the screen when I am asking about a channel on a particular satellite that I am already tuned to?
C. Does Anyone know where the dish is moving to so that I can program this satellite into my receiver so that it will download the information
I am asking it for?
D. Should I just act as if this button doesn't exist on my remote, and continue to live life with no possibility of having an EPG?
Thank You Very Much for your help.
