[trup111]

Hello,
I am new to FTA and excuse me if i am in wrong section. I just bought a Dreamlink TD5 hd and have paid subscription to Dish. Before i cancel with them i want this thing working. I have two dish one with one big oval shape lnb, believe pointed to 118 and 119 and called dish plus on the dish. Other dish called dish turbo HD and pointed to east with three lnb's 61.5, 72 and third not sure. Both dish connected together and one cable cumming to receiver with dpd2 switch. I tried to connect Dreamlink with spliter. I do get some chanals but loosing. Do i need a DPP44 switch ? How do i connect with DPP44 switch ?. or do i have to buy another dish 1000.2 with 110, 118 and 119 lnb's? Thanks in advance and will appreciate help.

Dump all of those dishnet dishes they require more power than the T5 can supply. plus very few providers support 61.5, 71.7 and 72.0! Buy the dish below 90.00 cad 85.00 usd and get 110-119 and 129 all from one dish! line up 119 and the other two fall right into place! Just be wary of the dreaded S 97 Q 97 signal meter bug in the T5!
