DISH NETWORK HDTV: Changing the Satellite Trio
IMPORTANT! Perform this procedure only if you are unable to receive all of your HD programming in a
particular area of the country.
You cannot change trios if the antenna has not been initially configured for Dish 1000 or
1000a (see pages 8-9).
Dish Network HD programming is broadcast from 4 satellites (61,110,119,129). The 61 and 129
satellites broadcast identical programming. (The 61 is generally stronger in the eastern U.S. and
the 129 in the western U.S.) The map below shows the approximate coverage for each satellite.
Your VuQube antenna can be easily configured to work with two different satellites trios (DISH
1000a: 61,110,119 or DISH 1000: 110,119,129) as you travel from one coverage area to another.
By choosing the appropriate trio that includes either the 61 or the 129 based on where you are,
you can receive all of your desired programming.
Note: This map is an approximation only. Which trio works best in a given location may differ from
what is indicated on the map.
