I sent GloryStar Support the following email:
I just installed the system. I am unable to get all channels when the switch is connected.
With only LNB-1 connected (through the switch), I get all AMC-4 channels. TBN is not coming in.
With only LNB-2 connected (through the switch), I get all Galaxy-25 channels. TBN is coming in.
With BOTH LNB's connected (through the switch), I DO NOT get all the Galaxy-25 channels. I DO receive Galaxy-25 Channels: 2, 4, 11, 13, 17, 18, 20, 23, 26, and 30.
I've tried resetting the receiver (rear power switch) and resetting to Factory Settings (with 2020). I turn off the receiver (rear power switch) whenever changing LNB cable connections.
Any suggestions?
This is the reply I just received from them:
Sir,
By connecting the cables individually through the switch with the power
on, the switch has been fried. Connections to the switch must be made
with the receiver power off. Your description of the switch working on
G25 only when both LNBFs are connected indicates that the receiver power
has been on when connections were changed and also that probably LNBF2
was connected to LNBF1 port of the switch and the receiver has detected
this incorrect connection.
If the switch is still good, you may be able to revive the system.
Email is not a ideal way to provide interactive support. For additional
assistance, please contact us Monday - Thursday, 8am - 5pm and Friday 8
am - 4:30pm, Pacific Time.
Obviously, they did not read my email. I'm an Electrical Engineer and an Amateur Radio Operator, so feel very sorry for any non-technical individual trying to install their system. I'm very disappointed with this type of customer support from a company selling "Christian" products.
