What is the proper receiver

setting for this new LNB?
 
Your receiver should have a setting for a Universal 9750/10600 LNB.

On the other hand, if you're trying to receive strictly North American satellites, you could set it to just 10600, and make sure to turn the 22kHz signal to On. The dual-band setting is only necessary for a few satellites visible from here, like 45W and 34.5W.

I’m in North America,
I would never get past 58W because of the mountains to the east of my location.
I’ll try 10600 and turn on the 22kHZ.
Thank you for the reply!

note that 65W also uses the lower Ku band (LO set to 9750, 22kHz off), so if you are within its footprint it might be worth using the actual "Universal" LNB setting
