118 is showing on tuner 1, but not on tuner 2????

If so, I'd say, "piss on it", and finish the download and then re-run the checkswitch to see if the 118 does come in. If it doesn't, then eliminate the usual suspect (i.e. defective separator) by trying to swap out said separator.

Well it dosent show siganl, but shows connection on tuner 1.....now I took all diplexers, and serperator out ran Check switch with straight in cable to tuner 1 and it yielded the same reslut no 118

first impression to me says - aiming.

things to check:

power inserter on output PORT 1 on the DPP 44 connected properly to switch, Receiver, and AC power?

any unrated barrels anywhere in the line?

what transponder at the Dish are you checking for on 118? whats the signal strength?
