AMC 121 Channel Change

We watch PBS on AMC121w. The channels seem to have dropped off it. They may be on Galaxy 16. How can I add the satellite and transponder to get them back again?

Once you are set to Gal 16 99w. tune using Infowars TV TP 12096 H 3675 and run a blindscan.
If not

Montana PBS is 11718 H 2389

PBS HD Mux is 12140 V 30000

You can use any satellite and rename later to Gal 16 99w or add a new one if not available

I seem to be having a problem picking up Galaxy 16. I have the dish pointed in its direction, but only get quality on a couple of transponders. Scanning 12140 at 30000 hz does not pick up any channels. I have a 33 inch dish.....wondering if it is large enough?

Which transponder should I set the receiver to when I am pointing the dish? I may have the transponder setting wrong.

121W is in transition to be replaced by a new sat. Galaxy31.
