You have to have a HDD-200 unit

A follow-up:

This evening, arriving at T4,600 et al., I found no signal, although I
had gotten a signal for this transponder and 601 and 602 yesterday. So I
followed the example given here and unplugged my 622 unit for a while,
after which I plugged it in again, intending to leave it plugged in but
not turned on for the remainder of the night. I'll report back tomorrow
whether this measure helped the unit "remap" these NET channels.

Then, you did not have T4 in dish alignment...got to have a signal.

The thing we are dealing with increasingly are aging units and old
technology that are failing to keep up with the world. There are no new
4DTV designs being offered and unfortunately our problems will
increase. It is obvious the industry has no interest in us or providing
up to date products. A dismal outlook indeed.
