I have a recent install of ...Dish 1000.2 with a VIP 612 and two VIP 211k's. I want to use one of the VIP 211k receivers at another location with a Dish 1000.1. I am not receiving the Sat 129... Can someone diagram the proper connection? Do I need additional equipment? :confused: Thanks!

The Dish 1000, which I think you are referring to, has one Twin LNB for receiving 110/119 and one dual (or single) LNB for receiving 129. The Dish 1000.2 has an integrated LNB and switch for receiving all three orbital locations. If your antenna has 2 LNBs and one is a twin, then you have all you need. Have you plugged the VIP 211k in and run the Check Switch? The single LNB (either a dual or single) is connected to the IN port of the Twin LNB. A line from either of the OUT ports of the Twin LNB will suffice for the VIP 211k. Here's a link to an installation guide for the D1000 antenna:
