This ultra lite has no power to speak of.....:grr:

I am running a express vu dish with 2 separate lnb's with 2 inputs on each one down to one receiver with a plain old 4 to one switch. Rg6 snap & seal connectors on a 30ft run. My Jynx wont put out enough power to kick that switch over be it vertical or horizontal sat one or sat two. That jb200 is soo hot I know it will burn out in a few days and I don't want to buy another one. Tried different combos of switches just to see if it would help and she is grounded.

Any ideas before I take a hatchet to this box???

So weird. That dish was installed perfect and my sub box says perfect signal. Is there a way I can add power with my sub box in there somehow?

I question that jb200 module, they are a strange breed indeed, if running hot...prolly your problem.

thing that gets me, remove the switch from the picture and direct wire it and I get great picture. My sub box shows 95% signal and the Jynx will show 80% and 79% quality.... I was wondering.... what if I was to hook a sub unit to the other ports each lnb do you think it will give more power fed back to the switch and what not. I should have kept my old cs5000 for the loop out....
