If it shows x's for all three Satellites it is receiving them.(and the switch confirms as 3 sat( Be sure 119/110 go into port 1 of the Sw21 and 61.5 into port 2)

If you're worried about aiming, the easiest way to go is to aim the dishes individually BEFORE hooking them together with the SW-21.

Also, when using a SW-21, make sure your LNBs are ALL Legacy types - NO DishPro logos.

This does make it a lot easier, find the birds then hook up the switch and you are ready to go...
