2 Single lnb

[PremiereElite]

How do I setup 2 single lnb to get 110 and 119?
Using a Disecq 4x1 I can only get Disecq port 2 signal on either 110 or 119..
Am I doing something wrong or the disecq is bad?

Rcvr must always be powered off if you disconnect or connect sat cable If you dont you will fry the switch
You can test your switch

Yeh connected directly to cable in and got great signals, so I guess I have to go to radio shack later and buy 2 switches .. 1 for backup lol.. Is there a way to by pass the disecq switches ?
Thanks all for the quick and professional responses:thumbsup:

Yes, replace the two single LNB's with one DP twin LNB,(it's setup for 2 satellites) it has it's own internal switch, you won't need the external switch.

Diseqc switching is the same, Diseqc #1= 119, Diseqc #2= 110.

Ok so the Disecq switch arrived today and it worked like a charm... The other switch was bad and caused all sorts of problem (included in my earlier post of being unable to switch from channel 200 to 199 and receive a picture).. LNB's are good but did already ordered the DP twin.. will keep it in stock ;)
Thanks everyone... this thread can be closed ;) :thumbsup:
