    Bad Multi-Dish Switch??

    Sorry JWOLF. I didn't mean to get you upset. I thought I had mentioned that I wanted to sort this out without the help of the service people Dish sent to install the system. They just ran the cables through a cellar window which couldn't be closed when they were done. Anyhow, thanks for all the...

    Bad Multi-Dish Switch??

    Well I thought I would give a little update. After weeks of just having a few channels, no program guide, many switch tests and a lot of frustration... this is where I stand.

    Bad Multi-Dish Switch??

    Bad Multi-Dish Switch??

    I was reading about the LNB (with built in switch) this weekend. One article I read said that they don't work with older receivers. Could it be that when I put my new card in, the updated info is not compatable with my old receiver?

    Trouble With Dish 500

    I'm having a similar problem. One receiver is fine, the other wont get satelite 110. I don't even get the program guide. It may be me, but it seems like it started around the time I inserted my new card.

    Bad Multi-Dish Switch??

    Good advice. Thanks! Any other ideas on doing it myself? It does concern me a bit when they say it's the Multi-Dish Switch when I only have one dish on that receiver.

    Bad Multi-Dish Switch??

    That's good advice but I think I may be too late. I should have done that before I made the call to tech suport. I think I'm on my own, so any help would be great!

    Hello, I am looking for a little help. Here’s what I have. Dish 500 which gets satellites 119 and 110 and a dish for local programming. I have a new receiver that runs two televisions and an old ( maybe 8 or 10 years old) receiver that I keep in the basement. The new receiver is hooked up to...
