    Lose Satellite signal when unplugging HDMI

    Wait a minute, isn't this Satellite pointing at and old setup? I still get all the channels including NFL Sunday ticket but I swear these are old Sats, anyone???? But if I switch the old LNB to Slim5, it sees 5 but has errors. I will add my pointing for zip 34449 is 220.

    Update to all instead of replying to all. Still not working and what I have to tell you is leaving everyone baffled. After doing everything we all discussed I decided to purchase a SWM LNB and use my father in laws H25 and would you believe that I get the exact same results. Works with the...

    Yeah, I have tried new HDMI cables, other devices work fine with new TV. Receiver must be screwed up.

    Lose Satellite signal when unplugging HDMI

    Without trying to come off wrong. I think you read my post wrong. I was upgrading to a new TV but I am beginning to think it's just a problem with the receiver. I really appreciate everyone help. This is a problem for the record books because I have done extensive testing and the results make no...

    did all that several times including call the 800 number, they are clueless. I can view all the receiver settings on the TV, it's just no signal for channels.

    I don't remember exactly but they were pretty high. Obviously on the new there was none.

    Lose Satellite signal when unplugging HDMI

    I have tried to get it working from scratch on the new system. I went through all the settings and disabled all inputs except HDMI and that didn't work either.

    Yes I know how the LNB is powered by the receiver or the inserter. Yes, the LNB has four outputs but I'm only using one. Trust me, what's happening makes no sense what so ever. It's making me think something internally on the receiver is shorted because it sure seems as if the TV is powering...

    No multiswitch. One coax from LNB to BBC and then to receiver.

    Lose Satellite signal when unplugging HDMI

    You misunderstood my post. What I did was test all other outputs on the receiver and ran two TV's off of the one receiver receiver at the same time. The bottom line is that for whatever reason, I get no signal from dish when the HDMI on the old TV is unplugged. To me, it seems like for whatever...

    Yes I played with the input settings on the TV and other settings on the receiver. Simply unplugging a HDMI cable should not stop power from going to the LNB.
