I just bought an GeoSatPro 4x4 multi switch, and am having an oddity. I have both 121 and 125 on the same dish, and hooked in the 4x4 switch. On LNB1 @ 125w, i receive all channels just fine. On LNB2@121w, I am unable to get any Vertical channels. I am able only to scan horizontal. I checked the cables to make sure it wasn't a faulty RG6. All good there. I know the signals come in fine, because i can accomplish a positive result with an ECODA 22khz switch.

I tried multiple combinations in my LNB settings, but i assume i got the settings right because i am getting the horizontal in just fine. I tried forcing the LNB power to 13 and 18 volt and that made no difference... Any thoughts???

What kind of LNBF's do you have hooked to it?
Swap, LNBF's and see if the problem follows.
 
You need dual output LNBF's to feed that switch properly.
 
LNBF # 1 = 22Khz OFF
LNBF #2 = 22Khz ON
?
Swap the #1 and #2 LNBF connections at the switch.
If problem transfers to the 'other' satellite, switch is bad.
(make sure power is OFF when messing with coax connections)
On LNB2@121w, I am unable to get any Vertical channels.
So? The only Vertical ch. is a slate and 1Khz tone. The one that's 'watchable' is H.
Or am I missing something????
 
Ok, was thinking they were singles. I have not used one in awhile.
