I just had a Triple LNB dish installed today but my new Samsung SIR-TS160 won't detect it. If I do the detect dish type setting it fails and when I select Oval 3 on my own it still will only show a signal on 101. I have two other receivers in the house and all show all 3 satellites and as well I even switched to one of those locations to make sure it wasn't just the cable going to the Samsung. Any idea what's causing this. Is there simply a setting I need to change or do I have a bad receiver?

I found an option in setup called Cable STD, Cable IRC, and Cable HRC. Does anyone know what these are? Either way it was for STD but trying it with both IRC and HRC works perfectly.

I also have the Samsung TS160. I am using the dual LNB oval dish and I pick up both 119 and 101 satellites with no problem.

I've had the receiver a few weeks with a dual LNB and saw the sats no problem. Just installed the oval dish yesterday, and after adjusting the dish I was able to get the receiver to see all 3 sats. I think you meant that you got it going in your second post, but I left the default settings which is STD and had no probs. Not sure how much help, if any this is.
