H24-200 Receiver

I use a H24-200 receiver camping and have later model receivers at home.  While camping (even just 10 miles from home) the setup only indicates sats 101 and 119 while at home it receives 99, 101 and 103.  What am I doing wrong in setup or does the H24-200 not pick up sats 99 and 103?

The 18" round dish only gets the 101 sat there is nothing on the 119, you need a slimline dish to get 99/103 with or without a SWM LNB.

What satellite dish are you using?

I am using a slimline dish, 18x20 triple-sat LNB, switch type multi-switch.  When setting up dish to find sat 101, I only get signal strength info for 101 and 109.  None for 99 and 103.

The 18x20 triple-sat LNB receives 101, 110 (no longer in service), and 119, not 99 or 103. You need to purchase a SWM Slimline dish with an SL3 SWM LNB in order to receive HD sats 99 and 103. Moreover, you need a new 2 inch tripod pole to mount the satellite dish on, and a 21V power inserter to power the SWM LNB is needed, as the H24 itself can’t power the SWM LNB as it did/does with your current 18x20 inch dish. 

In other words, you are currently using a Phase III dish and a 101, 110, 119 LNB.

I have a LNB with a model number(?) of 3D2LNBR0-02.  Is this a SL3 SWM?

The LNB is Correct --You need a Slim line Dish to go with it --the current dish your using will not work.

Please attach a picture of your dish to make sure we are understanding it correctly. The LNB number is indeed for a SWM SL3 LNB, but the dish you described as 18x20 came with a legacy nonSWM LNB, so perhaps you described the dish itself incorrectly.

Your dish looks correct from the pix --However the dish itself may be bent (or) got misshaped somehow.
