I agree, Kinda like fishing, sometimes you get a rather good bite on the line.
I was looking for WOUB (PBS Athens Ohio) and I thought that it was on the same sat as White Springs TV. I learned that it is on Echostar 5 at the same (129) Location so I moved my 18" DBS dish with the circular LNB to Echostar 5 and lo and behold, there it was!
I had installed a 22 kHz switch to add the 18" DBS dish into my receiver and now I can watch WOUB TV with an 18" Dish, and if I want to move it back to Echostar 7 @ 119 for the NASA Channel, I marked on the DBS dish with a Magic Marker the Location of the Echostar 7 so with a few wrench turns, I can move it over there.
Voila!
