Hi Strat,
welcome to the forum.
As mentioned, in the thread, the dish was aligned to the wrong satellite hence the problem picking up the required channels.
You state you have a similar problem, can you please provide a few more details, especialy what channels you're trying to get and what channels you are currently receiving.
I noticed you have the Fortec Passion+, you might want to look at other threads posted regarding your receiver, either use the search option at the top of the page or have a read through the fortec Star HD section:

Have you updated the official firmware on your receiver?
