X0 Channels

Saturday after I installed my TiVO HD, I noticed I was not receiving any KU channels on my Mercury II. I only had time to check X0. I got the channels on G0, but nothing on X0. I am able to receive the Ku on X4. There are no FTA channels on X4 that I know of.

Has anyone else noticed the channels on X0 missing? If not, I have a problem with my coax.

Thanks,

X0 is a 4DTV designator. First you state you have no Ku from G10R on the MercuryII but do have C Band on G10R. What receiver did you use to determine this? So do you not have the 2 channels on X0 with the 922? DO you have the channels on X0 with the 922 and nothing the MercuryII for Ku on G10R? Start with explaining what you do and do not have on each of yoru receivers along with current wiring configuration.

On my Motorola 922 I am receiving the Ku channels on G4. I moved the dish to G10r and received the C-band channels on the 4DTV of 101 and up. I tried to pick up the 2 Ku channels 620 and 622 on the 4DTV but received nothing.

On my Mercury II I can receive the Cband channels outdoor east and west. I could not receive any Ku channels.

The Ku coax goes through a splitter with one leg going to the 4DTV and the other going to the Mercury II. I don't use the Mercury II a lot due to time restraints. The last time I used it everything was fine. The G10r satellite may have drifted some. I know I have to tune the Ku side slightly different than the C-band side.

Knowing the channels are still working, I will try fine tuning my dish placement this weekend when I get home.

Thanks,
