You are scanning the wrong satellite, Air1 & K-LOVE Radio are broadcast on SES 1 at 101.0°W (11705 V 3650)

There is a setting in the "Scan" window that sets to Radio only or TV and Radio.

You may have it set to radio.

Today I'm getting RT Russia Today, NHK Japan, SBN Network and some Microspace TV channels, far as radio last night I was getting the overcomer, K Love and a few more. Which The overcomer radio is G19 and far as tv RT is G19. No sat aim changes just a factory flash firmware, then the 12/17/18 Update and American KU sat df firmware. Every time I blind scan it's picking up more TP's but nothing on them. 91% signal 74% quality. G19 has 200+ channels I'm getting 14.

Also check when you scan that you have the scan settings to Radio / Tv and have "Network Search" "Off".

Also check that you have the correct LNB setting in "Antenna" settings.

I went so far as to remove the port switch so it's coax straight to lnb also as maybe going through the motor was causing an issue. Bad connection and so on. Just trying to rule things out. Yes that is how the search is set up to 'scan all', 'TV + Radio', network off. I have also verified antenna setup is all correct. This was all working fine and had about 9 satellites programmed, I got busy with work and did not turn it on for about a month. So it was just setting turned off for that time. And when I turned it on to watch it that's when i started having all these issues. So my set up was working just fine a month ago. Lots of channels and 9 satellites programmed.
