i have 110 and 119 set on port 1 and 2 on the diseqc switch and have done a blind scan and it show channels but no A/V. what do i need to do?

hello hat1000 : you will not receive any programs without the ihub.dish has remove all the video and audio of it's preview channels and commercial channels. you will need the ihub to view 110 & 119. good luck. here is a post on equipment to view>>>Satellite TV Installation

Are there other sat's that i can hit with out a ihub on the sonicview and receive channels?

Yes you can.But to get the best out of (fta) free to air you would need a motorized dish.Its free but its about the same as using a (OTA) over the air antenna.You already have the receiver so get the ihub and we will help you set it up.

it also means that you would need a bigger dish than what you have the dish500? you would need a dish like 36 inches or bigger...

Thats cool, i had a Pansat2700 a couple of years ago until lighting hit, and it was nice but i was wanting a unit that was not to high in price and with a pvr capability.

when you receive your ihub.give us a shout and we will gladly assist you with set up and the correct files. everything you need to set up your box is located in our posts. you will need a constant internet signal .the sonicview is a good choice.it is good to have more than one receiver.iks is the way to receive programming.true free fta does need a larger the better dish and linear lnb along with a motor to search for channels on different birds.tell then, happy testing.
