    receiver wont recoginzed dish

    English please!!! haha Before you guys translate.. If I currently get a signal through "sat1" with my working dish; I then remove working cable and replace with cable to the non-working dish to "sat1" and rec. does not read won't that mean a bad LNB? or could the cable itself be bad?

    finding 110

    I had 110 before. The 4 footer was picking up 110 and the smaller 119. This was done by a former satellte installer with a very $$$ finder. The problem was I would lose the signal with the smaller dish at 119 many more times than when I switch. With the large Dish on 119 my signal strength is...
