I followed this thread yesterday:

http://www.satfix.net/showthread.php?75774-Putting-110-118-119-and-129-together.

I want to setup 61.5, 110, 119, 129 and 91 on 2 SV8000 receivers. I have the dish1000.2 or 1000.4, DPP44 power inserter, 2 Ecoda 22KHZ switches, and 2 Chieta 4x1 DiseqC switches.

My current setup is:

1 LNB of Dish 1000.2 or 1000.3 to Input 1 of the DPP44 (for extra power to LNB)
1 single LNB of Dish 1000.2 or 1000.4 to SV8000 (I only have 3 cables from the dish 1000.2 or 1000.4)

I get 61.5, 110, 119, 129 with good signal strength and all is fine.

I want to add 91 to this setup. Nothing I have done works. Can someone help me with a working setup?

Thanks in advance!

Okay not sure if I am the one to have any input here but if I am wrong hopefully someone will speak up and help us both.
To me your post is a little vague so please help me out.

Appears you have 110, 119, 129 (Dish 1000.2 Pro Plus-original setup, 2 cables, 3 sats) and 61.5 on the other dish.
Are you currently viewing TV with the described setup and if so, is it a single SV8000?

Okay, 5 sats means you need 5 lnbs since you are not sharing a 118/119 lnb.

I believe you will need another dish pointed at 91W and then using a SW21 join the output of your SW44 to your two receivers. But just to make sure we need to know what that 2nd dish is as you may not need a 3rd dish.

Yep may need to crawl up there and logged everything (LNB info, pics, extra port available, etc)...kewl, time to learn.
If you have a 1000.2 then there will be an extra port available, so you can tie your new 91W dish into it at that point and setup it up as port 4.





According to the linked post you wish to add a second SV8000 and sat 91W?

Thanks for the reply and I apologize if my post was vague.

From your reply, I must have the 1000.2 dish. This was set-up a couple of years ago for 110, 119, and 129 with 61.5 on the 4th port. 91W is a stand alone lnb. From a single cable from the 1000.2 to a single SV8000 receiver, my dish settings are: Echo 14 on port 1, Echo 10,11 on port 2, Ceil II on port 3 and Echo 12,15 on port 4. Signal quality is 72 or better and I currently view programming, no freezing, with this setup.

I am looking for a way to add 91W to this setup.
