    the combination will be similar to what you have done with 101/99 on the 0 KHz tone section of the switch but now on the 22 KHz tone portion combining 103/119 the question here's that you might loose some channels out of 103 unless all you are receiving are under lower portion or 250 MHz to 750...

    yes, all you need to do is right after the dual legacy lnbf place a regular legacy 3x4 multiswitch, 2 lines will be dedicated for dishnetwork and the other two with directv......

    why don't you give it a shot? The same lnb should work, just probably a slight adjust might give you readings

    If you don't find dual power pass diplexer you can also add power injector: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CPSOK56/?tag=satell01-20 If so you must locate it right after the Diplexer port for TV (5 to 900 MHz) in order to power the lnbf..... Have you considered just buying the kit out of the...

    Please don't confuse switch with Diplexor, and when placing the order, even call if possible to be sure it has dual port power passing Here are some merchants I found: http://www.minidish.com/cyberstore/product.asp?PID=PVDP2PP https://digital-connections.tv/shop/diplexer-two-port-power-passive...

    My advice: You are learning about this and I have posted how I suspect the thing works, read in detail the posts because you need to understand what you are doing to get the task done. 1.- Test to see if your area has Ka signals out of 99 & 103 (done). 2.- Figure out how to combine ka-lo with...

    Vixen: read in detail the diplxers that arrived do not have power pass in both ports only in the satellite port or 101w the model I linked had power pass on both ports, the only solution is to inject vdc to the 99 w lnb that isn't receiving at the moment any voltage to power up. the diplexer I...

    EC-2111 will not work, it is a switch that will either active port 1 with 0 KHz tone or port 2 with 22 KHz tone. ?you can not use that device to combine it works more like a selector.

    Hello Guys I've been a bit busy..... I've been reading a bit all your posts and I will just add a few things: 1.- Vixen if you want the thing to work without the two port powered Diplexer, you can use regular diplexers but you will have to use power supply to power the 99W a powered switch...

    What you have in the pictures are Diplxers and some splitters (no switches) and the reason why only the sat worked is because the lnb needs DC power without VDC the lnb wont work.

    I couldn't find any reference for HR122-700 (is your model older?) These are the models I found: DirecTV Standard Definition (D12). DirecTV HD Receiver (H10/H20/H21/H23/H24/H25). DirecTV Plus DVR (R15/R16/R22). DirecTV Plus HD-DVR (HR20/HR21/HR22/HR23/HR24). DirecTV Pro HD-DVR (HR21-Pro). The...

    What you bought should work... Just saying that if you wanted to run a single wire in the house you could take the advantege of using SWM (Single Wire Multiswitch) with the use of a SWM-8 this might be good for people who are using dual tuner receivers and want to run few cables or single...

    Although you are still working on the signals, just in case you haven't bought the switch yet.....you have the option to buy regular Wide Band Multi switch, but you may also consider using SWM that might be easier on the distribution. The final part of the puzzle is to convert legacy LNB to SWM...

    I'm not sure what you mean? But I advice to be 100% sure you have the correct feed located in tha antennas focal point. If you are not sure of your focal point mesure with the receive only feed struts of the other 1.8 m because the one you are using is tha antenna that has receive transmit kit...

    Out of your pictures here's the main axis feed: once you locate the lnbf at that feed axis, search for the signal and peak sliding up and down to see if you are at the peak of the focus, also you will have to realign azimuth and elevation, then take readings and compare where you achieve...

    Some days ago I explained: DirecTV 8 @ 101 W (100.88 W) that carries all 16 odd transponders can't beam all 16 transponders at double power, most likely only 8 Tps. therefore the other 8 have weaker signal due to the fact they're beamed in single power mode... if they don't manage the power the...

    Any pictures of the single lnb on the 1.8? Remember that you have similar variables like in 101w you have two satellites @ 103w Orbital Slot 103 w: Ka-Lo: Satellite: DirecTV 10 (102.83 w) Tps: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14 (CONUS Beam) Ka-Hi: Satellite: DirecTV 12 (102.76 w) Tps...

    I'm not sure we have talked about this in the past, but I have a couple of comments only for others reading: I strictly use RG 11 only when cable run is over 150 ft. (Any how you already have it laid out) now days there are special RG 6 specially sweept up to 3000 MHz special for DBS. if I have...

    Why are you using RG 11? Is the cable run so long? I saw you have several other antennas, probably you could use a single antenna per orbital slot and get more stable levels, of course first you must try your best with a single 2.4 m......good thing you got Ka!! Good luck!

    So you have lock on Ka signals? How low are they? you might try with a cheapper 1.8 m with your current DTV KAKU Lnb; as the antenna has more gain it has narrower beamwidth so aiming is more challenging and might require a bit of skills I have a good friend in Idaho that manufactures very high...
