    phase II vs Phase III

    I have a pase 2 dish with an added lnb c for HDTV sat 110. Would I be better off with a phase 3 dish. Is it a better product. Or does it make a difference?

    Lnb C

    Yes it does appear that way. I am just curious about sat 119 signal. I dont order anything forigen anyway. Perhaps that why it dosent detect. But I did just plug in lnb c like you said and it seems to be working. Just an update. I called DTV and order the HD package. Went out for a bit came...

    Lnb C

    Built in switch

    Ok looking at my dish I do have a spot for LNB C. I pulled of the protective plastic cover and saw 1 input. I assume that is for HDTV. So I am also assumeing perhaps my dish does have a built in switch. How does someone check for that. Is there something I need to do?

    Built in switch

    Thanks ok I see. Just having trouble getting anything on 119 degrees. If my 101 is pointed correctly shouldn't 119 also be there?

    Built in switch

    Sorry to be posting on subjects that seem to repeat themselves. I am trying to learn as much as possible. Here is a question. Can someone explain to me the built in switch I hear about on dishes. How do you check for it. Is there something you need to do to use it etc. Thanks

    Terk multiswitch

    Well I hooked up both DVR's today. I would have to say it went easy. The 3x4 switch worked fine. Both dvr's are running fine as well so far. I will keep a good peek on both. The only thing I happen to see today and wonder about is this. Even though I have a phase 2 dish with 2 LNB's. All my...

    Terk multiswitch

    On my 3x4 switch there is a port for 18 v. But all my irds seems to be on 101 degrees. Does that matter. Or do I need to go buy a different switch.

    Terk multiswitch

    Yes that is the dish I have. The dealer at the store said I needed a 3x4 switch would be fine. All I wanted to know was about my hook ups to the different voltages. When I hook up the switch and just leave my rca ird hooked up I am not getting all the channels. WHY?? 2 inputs for 1 dual...
