Setup??

[jbj000]

I just installed this new NextFta in public. While sarching for satellites (110,119), it does not scan all the channels. It looks like some of the transponders for 110and 119 do not have signal. It does scan most of the channels but not all of them. I used this dish and diseqt switch before with different receiver and it used to be fine.
So right now the receiver is up and running but some channel work good, some do not exsist at all and some the signal is on and off a lot ( no signal ! shows on the screen a lot).
Is it the receiver, or the diseqt switch or smth else???
Any suggestions??? Please
Thank you

Post your set-up lnb type, switches and your settings for your sats

This is my setup
Diseqc 4 for echo14 (diseqc 3 for echo 10)
Diseqc 1.1 none
Tp 12297
Lnb 11250
22khz off
Multi switch off
Search all channels
Lnb power on



Post your set-up lnb type, switches and your settings for your sats

does the correct sat appear in settings for each sat?
You might have to change the tp freq to 12297 for echo 14 to check sat lock
What kind of lnbs are you using ,single lnbs?

[jbj000]

Yes. The right satellite shows. But only a few transponders get signal. I am using single lnb

can you post more detail? is it one lnb with two eyes? are you wiring it to a diseq?
can you post a pic?

[jbj000]

It is two different dishes with one lnb each. Both lnb are connected to diseqc and then connected from diseqc to receiver.

if its single dishpros the setting for lnb is dishpro1 and not 11250
I would bypass the switch and check each lnb directly to rcvr
if both sats are fine replace the switch

[jbj000]

I will try to change the switch, and see what happens. Thanks for your help.

Also is it a long run of coax from the switch to the receiver? The manufacture of these receivers does not seen a lot of amperage out to the lnb

The coax is not long

make sure you power off rcvr in back when connecting or disconnecting sat cable

I dont know why you are posting your settings in this thread(by the way they are incorrect) as the op has two single lnbs
You should turn legacy switch off in both
