Helping a buddy out. He and technology don't get along.
He has 1 HR20 connected to a Slimline 5 dish with dual lines. He lives by himself so this suits him just fine however, recently he built a cabin on his land up North. He installed a Slimline 5 dish at the cabin but only ran one coax line.
He brings his IRD with him when he goes and it has always worked without a hitch until recently. He went up this weekend and no signal. He had line 1 connected like always. He plugged it into runner 2 and he had picture but no guide data.
He came home tonight and hooked up both turner to find no picture. He had to repeat guided setup to make everything work like normal again at home.
Any thoughts? I suggested getting 2 SWM LNB's (one for each dish) but that would run $100+. I also suggested running a second line at the cabin but huge pain in the butt to fish wire. And lastly suggested doing a guided setup whenever moving the receiver but he doesn't want to deal with that.
So I'm turning to my friends here for other ideas/solutions. I sure hope we can help. Thanks in advance as always.
