Help I am going insane

#1
First of, I want to apologize for the questions i might ask that have been repeats and several times answered.
What I am trying to do is be able to watch HDTV over Echostar.
I had Dish network install a dish (1000+ with the big ugly LNB in the middle) at my house. They also installed a 44 switch. My LNBs are pointing to 119, 110, 129 and 118.
Now I am running vista 64. I have a twinhan AD-SE200 pci-e DVB-S.
With that one I could not scan any HD transponders at 21500.
So i bought another card, a TBS 8920 DVS-S2 with 8psk. I still cannot scan any HD channels. I have 0 signal. any other channels are fine and have over 95% quality.
I tried to use the switch and I tried each lnb seperate. Still no signal.
Any advice? PLEEEEEEEEASE[/b]

It is normal question in this form. Why not discus american satelittes in this place? But I think problem not in satellite, problem in DVB card.

That's because that card does NOT support Turbo Coded 8PSK with which is what DN uses.

Before you ask. While DVB-S2 has specs that support 8psk that is not the same as the 8psk with turbo-fec that DN uses so any other DVB-S2 card will not work either. If you are really interested to a search for the skywalker-1

SkyWalker-1


Supported modulations:

DVB-S (QPSK)
Turbo-coded QPSK
Turbo-coded 8PSK
Turbo-coded 16QAM

DVB-S2 standard is not supported (incompatible FEC) :(
