You can receive the NASA channel, and some Dish Network information channels only. However, for testing purposes, if you wish to lock onto them here is the information:=== EchoStar 7 (119W) ====== [[EchoStar_7_by_Lockheed_Martin|EchoStar 7]] (119W) === Transponder - 12268 LNB Type .......... OSC-DP Transponder Freq - 11250 LNB Frequency ..... 11250 LNB Type - OCS-DP 22KHz ............. OFF 22Khz - Off Transponder ....... 12239 * DiSEqC Number - LNB1 DiSEqC ............ Port 1 Legacy SW - None Motorized - None=== EchoStar 8,10 (110W) === LNB Type .......... OSC-DP LNB Frequency ..... 11250 22KHz ............. OFF Transponder ....... 12224 * DiSEqC ............ Port 2=== EchoStar 6,8 (110W) ====== Two LNB One Cable === Transponder - 12224The "Dish 500" minidish is equiped with a DP Twin LNB. Transponder Freq - 11250The typical Dish Network Diseqc's settings are: LNB Type - OCS-DP 22Khz - Off 119: port 1 (for dish 500) Set the Diseqc for [[EchoStar_7_by_Lockheed_Martin|EchoStar 7]] to Port 1 DiSEqC Number - LNB2 110: port 2 (for dish 500) Set the Diseqc the EchoStar 8,10 to Port 2 Legacy SW - None Motorized - None=== Testing the Configuration ===There are several Transponders active on a satellite. The nice thing about using 12239 as the default setting for ES7 and 12224 for ES8/10 is that it will help you to ensure you have the LNB settings in the correct order, as well as the antenna pointed correctly. Transponder 12224 will not have any signal quality on ES7. If it does, you probably have them backwards (technically this would be an aiming issue that would result in only achieving signal from 1 of the 2 satellites.) == Miscellaneous == === Charlie / DIK === The CEO of Dish Network is a man named Charlie Ergen. Many satellite TV testers have reportedly used the slang term "Charlie" when referring to Dish Network. Another reported slang word for Dish Network is DIK. DISH is also reported to be an acronym for the phrase Digital Information Sky Highway Network, or D.I.S.H. Network. === Beverly / BEV === Beverly is reported to be a common nickname for Bell ExpressVu given by Canadian FTA Satellite testers. Another reported slang term for Bell ExpressVu is BEV.[[Category:FTA]]
