I've been playing with my new Elite. few problems I came across. I am missing few channels first I thought may be my signal and quality. Highest I get 68 signal and 95 Quality. I tried to tweak my birds (119,110,61.5). but the highest I get is 68. My birds are kinda far from the box. should i try to use a signal booster from radio shack and what kind of scan should I do. right now I am doing sat scan.
Having lots of problem with recording and playing on dual tunner. I am using a Freeagent desktop 500 gb, I don't know how much buffer it has or none.

Sorry but I do not own one of those so some else will have to help with the recording.
As far as the signal go, they look fine. If you are missing channels it may be because you may have the incorrect Dish Setup setting.
Please post your settings as they appear on your screen and include the S and Q signals for each sat ID and what sat is locked in. (top right hand corner)

I have a one dp single lnb dish for 61.5 which is connecting in to second dish dp plus dual lnb in connector. they all locked in to correct sats. signal for all three is around 55-65 and quality is 80-95.
