I had a long talk with the engineers who "built" this mess and after getting part numbers, they sold legacy LNBs..ordered the DP single today for arrival Wednesday. I'll let you guys know how it turns out..Sorry for the confusion this has been a frustration.

It is a generic, it shows 129 even/odd when doing a switch test..the original wiring is to a DBS amp (Sonora) PAL10-T that shows 19V out *which i assume is for DP usage*..if not, that could be whats going on except if im only receiving 18v wouldnt that mean my problem would be opposite??

It didnt give me any errors when i did the check switch..it shows that the LNB is verified reception on both the odd and even transponders. I can check the signal on both even and odd transponders and it gives me a signal of 50+ for all of the transponders.. I've been doing some reading on the...

reciever is plugged directly into an isolated non-switched power outlet..like i said in the original post the part that gets me is that it only affects even transponders on 2 different satellites, and that is what makes no sense... I am correct in assuming that when receivers are in legacy mode...

are you saying the even and the odds come in differently on a DP lnb that I would need a separator just to light up 1 tuners??? Same behavior happens on a 211 also and its a single tuner

Replacing the cabling was the first thing I tried..Also tried with a 221 receiver and then swapped to a known working LNB from a 110 dish. Still had the same issue, that why I was wondering if it was a problem some people see with 129 or if possibly I have an undervolt condition in the LNB...

The HD channels are all part of the subscription, it does not tell me that the channel is not authorized. It just gives me a message about "Channel Signal Loss" on the screen.. I have this dish jacked straight into a DP single LNB on 129 and I get that message.. I can use same dish, same...

not using a switch..just connecting 129 directly to the receiver to get whatever content is on 129

Hi all, I have been working on a Dish headend for the past 2 weekends to help a friend get their HD channels working. Without getting into the nitty gritty of how the headend is setup, the issue was HD channels on 129 were missing. I had some low SNRs (5.0-8.0) on the transcoders so i figured...
