If you're hitting 119 with the 110 LNB, the receiver shoul also hit 129 and tone on the 119 LNB. Make sure that the receiver can lock on the 110 satellite without a "wrong satellite" message.
 
If it's a dish pro twin lnb you need to run two cables to your receiver, one to each of the inputs. If it's a dish pro plus twin lnb then you only need one and you can connect to either output on the lnb.

Exactly.. Make sure you have a line from the LNB to each satellite input on the back of your 222. (There are 2) If you only have 1 line and are using a separator it will not work off a dish pro. If you DO have a separator and are only using 1 line, then you must have a dish pro plus LNB.
