Apparently, you've got some locals out on the wings somewhere. 61.5, 105, 121, or 148. You don't say where you are, so it's impossible to say which bird is needed.

Or, of course, you could call the number in the notice. Bet it's 1800-333-3474.

E*7 is Echostar-7 satellite @ 119 degrees west. E*8 is @ 110, and that's where most of the Dallas locals are.
The chart I referenced shows only 2 stations on the bird at 148. If you want them, contact Dish. They should come out and install the 2nd dish and any necessary switch for free. You should probably have them install it for you even if you don't want the channels - the equipment can be useful.

I agree. The SW64 switches fail. My first one was mounted on the roof byViROID said:
the tech with "this side up" facing down.
When I got a replacement SW64 I mounted it properly under the eaves and out of the sun and weather. Never trusted it though so converted everything to DP technology. No failures yet with the DishPro stuff.
You will pick up the 2 locals you are missing as well as several other channels and best of all it is free.
Here is a list of channels you could get.

You would get the 148 satellite.
