Hi, I have the following setup for DN 119, 110 elliptical dish with 2 dual LNB's (standard lnbs) routed to 2 diseqc switches 119 port 1, 110 port 2. Output to 2 receivers, both viewsat extremes.
I get all of the channels that I'm supposed to have.
The problem I'm having is that just one of the receivers will freeze up, requiring a power off/on to resume. This only happens when somebody is using the other receiver and starts changing the channel.
I since have tried swapping out the diseqc switches for SW-21 switches and now the one receiver that used to freeze right up will just pixelate or drop signal for a second then resume. I don't have to power off/on, however the disruption in picture is rather annoying.
Can somebody tell me why having 2 viewsat extremes causes this conflict. Any help would be very appreciated.
Settings for both receivers. Echo 119 LNB POWER: ON LNB TYPE: Standard LNB Frequency : 11250 22 Khz: OFF TP Freq: 12239 SEARCH OPTION: ALL DiSeCq 1.0: NONE MOTOR: OFF Legacy SW: SW-21 Port 1
Echo 110 LNB POWER: ON LNB TYPE: Standard LNB Frequency : 11250 22 Khz: OFF TP Freq: 12224 SEARCH OPTION: ALL DiSeCq 1.0: NONE MOTOR: OFF Legacy SW: SW-21 Port 2
Thanks to those who replied with ideas on fixing my problem. I went out and bought a dishpro twin lnb and hooked it up. I tested this setup prior to purchase and found it resolved the issue. I installed the lnb and now I have no more freezing/pixelation problems. Thanks again for your help.
