Dish has two options in the TV channel setup. One for the main receiver and one for receiver two, if you have a dual box. Anyway, you can find that info with your remote by hitting the DVR button, scrolling down to cancel, at which point it brings up another menu. Scroll down to setup and you should find it there.

The dish on the outside of the house picks up the signal beamed down from the satellite in space. From the dish the signal is sent to the receiver.

How can make sat dish?
The best form of dish is a Parabolic Dish - This captures the digital signal and because of its concave form bounces the signal to an LNB ( stands for Low Noise Block) and it is the receiving end of a satellite dish. The LNB must be pointing directly to the satellite overhead in orbit to receive the strongest and clearest signal. As with a normal TV antenna, it may be required for you to adjust the LNB in order to receive the highest quality (strongest and clearest) satellite signals available
How does the proper satellite signal get to the TV channel?
The correct signal for satellite TV is determined by the direction the satellite dish is pointed. DirecTV and Dish Network signals come out of the Southern sky from the direction directly above Texas. Many other satellites orbit the earth and send out audio and video signals of all different types and formats. Simply put, a satellite dish is like a catchers mitt and will catch any signal coming from the satellite it is aimed towards. The signal received will need to be properly matched with the in house receivers and equipment in order to work properly. For example, if a Dish Network dish is aimed towards a DirecTV satellite signal, the system will not work.
