Yes a 211 will work on the eastern arc 61.2, 72, and 77 orbitals. First run a check switch, menu then 6 then 1 and 1 again to get to the point dish screen. Select check switch and then verify there that it sees all of your satellites. Unless you have a Spanish or other foreign package, you dont need the 77, so if it only finds 72 and 61.5 thats ok.

You might try disconnecting the sat dish coax and running check switch. Then reconnect and run check switch again.
YES, this will work . I have worked with 211ks for the last 3 years and have one account with just a 211k. You have to clear out the check switch matrix when you change any satellites you are using.
Yes thanks I am trying this and I did it check switch without the cable and it cleared it and check switch with the cable and I got confirmed 61.5'72.0'77.0 so when I hit done it goes to acquiring signal gets one green bar and it stays there and it doesn't go on to he next bars here are 5 bars that it has to go but stays stuck on one for a long period of time more then 30min I checked switch again and it stays here any suggestions ???
