    Odd tp's only

    I could not get DN to clear my DN 500 dish from power lines. I moved it myself. I get good signal on 110 and 119 but only get odd numbered tp's. Is it possible that I have LNB's both looking at wrong sats, criss crossed? Check switch shows SW21 and only odd. Also is 110 tp 22 conus or spot?
