Silver Member Username: MuchoPost Number: 298 Registered: Dec-07 | Hey fast Try this, A) Plumb your Mast, It MUST be vertical in all directions.  B) use a compass and clinometer to determine a clear line of sight to Echo 7 @ 119.o*W.   |

Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York City in-HD, NY Post Number: 2824 Registered: Oct-06 | No need for compass Yo can do both without moving dish at all Yo need 2 LNBs 1- LNB for 110 and 1-LNB for 119 - Yo can strap a second LNB on same bracket mount However facing the dish for east coast 119 has to be slightly higher than 110 Reference: https://www.ecoustics.com/cgi-bin/bbs/show.pl?tpc=2&post=1496494#POST1496494  |

Silver Member Username: FastbeatzPost Number: 274 Registered: Sep-06 | ok..im on the west coast..so i have to raise LNB for 110W?? The actual problem is that im not getting 119W...if i look at my antenna settings when i put it on 119W it gives me a verry good signal for 110W.....its some how getting 110W instead of 119W.... but when i go to the antenna setting for 110W it works fine...it is getting the signal from 110W... So i think i have to move the LNB that i use to get 119W ....so i can make it get 119W not 110W... if you have anymore info that might help please tell me...and which way should i move the 119W LNB to get 119W??? |

Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York City in-HD, NY Post Number: 2829 Registered: Oct-06 | From what I understand Yo got one dish, one LNB for 110 110 working fine Now What I say don't move the dish Yo need to add on 119 So yo need to add a second LNB on the right side of 110 facing the dish just like photo above Next step Yo need either to skew the dish or lower 119LNB since yor on the west coast - skewing dish for west coast will be simple twisting dish plate from behind the dish few notches counter clockwise until yo get Q-signal If like yo saying still getting 110 not 119 This tells me yo are combining 2 sats on faulty switch or not enabling correct DISEqC port in Antenna Setup So insttead of me guessing yor hardware List all hardware in full detail When I say list hardware I mean don't give me stories just list all yo got Dish, LNBs, Switches, Cables, Receiver name, current settings, etc. I can get yo up and runing in few seconds Good luck |

Hey King you are telling the man that he needs to add a second LNB on the right side of 110 facing the dish just like photo above, he said that he has scan 119 you think he used his dick.  |

Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York City in-HD, NY Post Number: 2831 Registered: Oct-06 | He is green It's hard to tell if he moved the dish or trying to get 2 birds with one LNB or faulty switch or even not enabling correct port Based on what he provided can be anything So if I tell him add an LNB and he already had one he would say I did Relax Hawak Yo ain't my enemy There is only one common forum enemy here That's Jimmy But I will run him out before he get to anyone else |

Gold Member Username: Donnie1973Post Number: 3029 Registered: May-06 | disecq settings on reciever (and disecq switch if using one) 119= disecq 1 110 disecq 2 u have these wrong. Get 110 in as u have, then move the skew till u get 119. It may take some one to watch the signal strength. But u will get it with patience |
|
Silver Member Username: FastbeatzPost Number: 276 Registered: Sep-06 | ok..im going to skew the dish or something...i will watch the signal inside... ok so i have 2 lnb for that dish 1 for w110 and the 2nd for w119 w119 is on port 3 and w110 is on port 2 i have intl channels on 97w with other dish on port 1 ok so the only one not work is the lnb for 119w...i think i need to move/adjust it or skew dish...i'll see what happens |

Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York City in-HD, NY Post Number: 2834 Registered: Oct-06 | Now that yo provided additional info If I were yo I go 119 straight to receiver Bypass switch using a couplar instead As yo get good signal change back to DISEqC port This eliminates possibility of wrong settings along with skew counterclock wise is wheat yo need to skew |

Silver Member Username: FastbeatzPost Number: 277 Registered: Sep-06 | ok never mind...i have 2 LNB's but i am only using 1 LNB for both w110 and w119..... w110 - port 2 - gets w110 very goo quality and signal w119 - port 3 - gets w110 instead of w119 idk why... what do i do? |
|
Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York City in-HD, NY Post Number: 2836 Registered: Oct-06 | "what do i do?" Yo can't do both 110 and 119 on one LNB without a motor Or add a second LNB and skew it as I indicated above |
|
Silver Member Username: FastbeatzPost Number: 278 Registered: Sep-06 | i cant skew the 2nd lnb because it is attached to the 1st one.... and i ha d 119 and 110 on same lnb working before....but i had them on different ports...what is a motor?? |

Silver Member Username: MuchoPost Number: 309 Registered: Dec-07 | Which twin LNB do you have?. A) has built in switches, so each port is capable of sending 110/119 down it. Since you have only 1 rec, just hook it directly to port 1, run check switch, activate rec and you're good to go. Assuming that you have the dish peaked. A)  B)  |

Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York City in-HD, NY Post Number: 2837 Registered: Oct-06 | If yo can't skew LNB yo skew dish plate If yo can't skew dish plate yo skew LNB If yo can't skew either then it's time to buy a new dish that can be easily skewed If this is not a new installation and yo had them working before then it must be yor LNB port assignment in yor antenna settings somehow got changed |

Bronze Member Username: ZizoPost Number: 51 Registered: Jun-06 | Hi, I have the satellite 118 now. Is there any solution to get also the 110 and the 119 on the same dish? Thanks |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 10918 Registered: Jun-06 | Zizo Zizo: For many persons from the East, your quest is the most legitimate quest. The answer is " Yes, You can get 118.7,119, and 110W, all using one dish" Your dish has to be 33"-36". You mus use one special LNB like a CB2008A for 118/119 and another standard LNB for 110W. The CB2008A has two outputs for two receivers, and EACH output will give you both 118 (Anik 3) and 119 (Echo 7). You will most likely need to modify a bracket to house it. The LNB for 110W (Echo 8,10) is a standard LNB with two outputs for two receivers. Add two 4 to 1 DisEqC, and you should be able to get two receivers attached to these. DO NOT go for DishPro LNBs, unless you want to go the Dishpro route and buy official kit for Dish for about $110 (This is OK, if you had a large dish for 121W and are now rethinking). White Hawk has posted a good picture above, and, as I said, your only minor problem will be mounting the LNBs properly and securely. Don't listen to anybody who suggests doing it with a dish under 30" in size. It might work for a while marginally and with the first electrical storm you will get a black out on 118. Make sure you get the proper LNB for 118/119 - this is a Universal or a circular LNB specialy designed to receive 118/119 combo on one LNB, and using one input port of a DisEqC switch. |

Bronze Member Username: CdeepakPost Number: 33 Registered: Jan-07 | 110+119 works on same dish but you will loose quality on either one of them. In order to get best quality signal from 110 and 119 I am using seperate dishes. I had dish network people who installed dish everytime I moved and everytime either one of them had quality only 50% Now I get 80-90% quality on both of them with seperate dishes. PPV movies and 499 stuff works at almost DVD quality with seperate dishes. |
