    Strong TP on Galaxy 17

    Used to be able to lock to 3840 H within seconds on Galaxy 17 but now I cant seem to find any signal on my 6ft dish. Could anyone point out a strong TP on this satellite so I can keep trying?

    Cable 1x2 splitter

    Looking to split a line into two as Norsat LNBs only have single output and with dual LNBs on market i have either no signal or on the edge of pixelation.

    Question about cabling and signal distribution

    Need some advice. Dish 1000.4, about 50ft of cables to 3 cascaded DPP44 switches. Now I need to run a cable to a completely opposite side of the building and the only starting point that makes sense is the dish or the first 10 ft of cable.

    Losing 119 signal when cascading switches

    Running Dish 500 Plus, cascading 3 DPP44 switches and at some point 119 signal has gone missing on all outs, but signal for 118 remains strong. Where should I start digging? Also, has anyone tried high end powered EU switches, like EMP 9x16 or Terra 9x16? Will these work?
