I have a 1002 dish with the Dish Hopper & single Joey setup. I recently lost tuner 3 during my check switch test. I borrowed another neighbors lmb and his worked fine when (check switch) but when I reinstall my existing lmb and retest then once again I loose tuner 3? Its strange to me as I still have tuner #1&2 just not #3.

My Setup
3 head lmb with F connector #1 connected to>hybrid solo hub ODU port.
Hopper/Sling > connected to > solo hub Host port.
Joey >connected to Client port on hybrid solo hub.

I have a few questions if I may,
1) How does the hybrid lmb supply signal for tuner #3?
2) Is there a way to fully test an lmb with a meter like a Birdog signal meter? Since mine seems to only be partially impaired?
3) How do I know which specific lmb i can use to replace my bad one? I believe I have a Dish Pro Hybrid lmb? There are a few out there that look almost identical?
I am good at breaking down and resetting up the system but when things like this happen it is unknown to me? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
