Use it for set it ~~http://satcalculator.freehostia.com/~~ Try another port on switch

SHADOW45 Silver Member Username: Shadow45 Mty, Nuevo Leon Mexico Post Number: 283 Registered: Aug-07	Posted on Saturday, September 13, 2008 - 04:39 GMT Guys...i seem to be in need of further assistance...as it turns out i seemt to have had everything pointed correctly, but still no 119...i decided to check each LNB by conecting it directly to the box...now the 1 inthe centre (110 diseqc 1) said 32% quality and no signal eventhough it was working 2 days ago...i unplugged it, plugged the one to the left of it (119 diseqc 2)..and that one does have signal but only for the 110`s..i dont know what im doing wrong or if that one LNB is busted...can anyone confirm or let me know how i can see if the LNB took a dump?...thanks

My DiSEqc is right coz i didnt change that. TP Fred is 12224 and LNG Freq is 11250. I have DP34 switch.
