i have the same problem, i've got fluctuating 90%-99% signal and i'm using the 110/119 bracket. i cannot get any signal whatsoever on the 119 sat.

on 110, i've setup the echo8.6 to diseq #4. on 119, it's plugged into diseq #2. both standard lnb's from the directv dishes.

use port 1 of your switch for 119 and port 2 for 110.

remember to turn off all power before playing with the cables, or the switch will short out.

when trying to locate the satellites..it is better to leave the switch out..go direct from 110 lnb find the satellite then repeat for 119.. then you can hook up your switch..use port 1-119 use port 2-110 and make sure those setting match in your installation menu.

and if you have been connecting and disconnecting cables and switches with power on, then yes your disque will probably be fried.

as long as you have the proper elevation, azimuth you will find it...make sure you have the correct lnb type selected in installation 2 or it will not show up on the screen even though it is there..sometimes if you if you move to where you select sats it will show up on different ones..if so you can scan it there also.

read above post except for 22khz part... one of these satellites needs to have 22khz ON and another OFF

is it safe to play with the TP settings to get better signal? ...i seem to be able to pull about 50% signal from 119 when i adjust the TP settings.
