Just moved in new house. Dish tech moved dish, ran cable, and initialized everything. I was given a PVR 501 and had a DP301. Both are hooked up. I only have 1 coax coming in from the dishpro dual LNB. With both receivers on, I have intermittent signal lose and picture freezes. With the 301 off, things seem to work better. The tech said "you can hook up to 4 receivers to this line - NO PROBLEM!" I think I need another coax coming in from the dish. I feel the switch is receiving conflicting signals from the two receivers. ANY help will be appreciated! The tech did not seem to be the sharpest knife in the drawer.

My next questions: Does the Dishpro LNB have the switch built in? The tech ran two coax cables from the dish to a dual grounding block under the porch but only ran one from there on into the house. I think if I continue that unused coax on into the house The problem should be solved. Does that sound right? Thanks!
