I have a low signal about 60-65 0n 119 Transponder 11 and when I tune in 110, I loose 119. I did have the dish blow over recently and it slightly bent the back of the rim but it did not appear to bent the dish any other place. I straightened the edge (the rim that surrounds the dish). I have...

:confused: Is there a good way to see what the dish actually sees? I am having trouble getting a good signal from 110 and 119 with a dish 500 and Quad Pro LNB but there does not seem to be any obstruction in the line of sight. I have tried a laser (magnetic strip) attached to the underside of...

I know that the RG6 from the LNB to the Receiver must be grounded through a grounding block. My question is how far / or close does the grounding block have to be to the LNB's? Can I run a long RG6 30 Ft. before attaching to the grounding block and the LNB? In other words LNB---30Ft...

I have two TV Guardians and they both work fine. I have the old style with the coax and the new style with the S video and composit out. I just take the signal over s video and regular audio from the Dish 311 and go to input of TV Guardian. I then take the S out put and regular audio from...

Well guys success at last!!! I took Minors suggestion and covered the LNB for 119 and tuned for 110. The location of the tripod and dish had to be changed but I finally got a signal on 110 about 75 0n the meter. Pretty good considering the place is loaded with trees. Ke4est, your...

Hey Guys, I did not have time this weekend to work on the problem. I will try Minors suggestion and I do appreciate the feedback. I will let you know the result.

Will a Gecen MS 3401 3x4 Multiswitch work on Dish Network Pro LNB Twin with 311 Receiver? Will a Zinwell SAM 3402 3x4 Multiswitch work as well? Are these items a direct replacement for SW34 by Dish Network ?

The LNB is a twin with two eyes, Pole is level and in a tripod. I do have a lot of trees but I would think it would effect both sats.

I have a problem seeing the 110 bird. I have 119 tuned in with a 100+ signal but I can't get 110 at all. My 311 shows wrong Sat. on signal strength meter. This is a dish 500 with Dish Pro Twin LNB. Two 311's are fed from LNB. Setup shows 119 Green and 110 Red with an X. Have tried EL...

Thanks to all of you who replied to the question. I have a Pro Dual LNB so it looks as if I can use the SW34. I really appreciate the detail given by John L and all of the others who contributed. I have learned a lot fromthis thread

I have a Dish 500 Setup with dual LNB's. I want to add a third reciever. I also need programming for 119 and 110. What do I need to buy? I had hoped to go to a Multiswitch and avoid buying a quad LNB. I have std. definition not Hihg Deginition. Brand name and model and place to purchase would be...
