If I turn power off and back on useing the remote, thats the only way I can get the thing to pick up sat. 7 I have to do that everytime it switches from 8.6 to 7 but as long as it's all sat. 7 it works fine and switches to 8.6 fine. The other way around though is sad. Is anyone else haveing that problem? Please help!!!
Thanks!

Sounds like a bad switch or weak signal.

are you using a DiSEqC switch? if yes, make sure the switch is as close as possible to the receiver. Having it far away will cause malfunction and the inability of your receiver to control the switch properly.

Good luck!

ok, I removed all things that I thought could cause a problem like diplexer and the one inline conector I had so I guess the DiSEqC sqitch is starting to break down... how long do they usually last for? it's a pansat that came with my box. THANKS
