Here is what I have. I have two DTV dishes. One has a single LNB and one has a Dual LNB. I have a SW21 switch, but not hooked up yet. What I have done is hooked the dish with the single LNB up directly and pointed it at 119. Came in great with strong signal. Then I unhooked this dish and hooked up the other dish with Dual LNB directly to try to get 110 tuned in. Here is where the problem is. I can't get any signal on the 110. I have made sure that the elevation is correct and moved the dish back and forth for the azimuth, but no signal strength. I also tried changing the transponders to see if it would come in on a particular transponder, but nothing. What I have set up in the receiver is 110 checked off and the dish selected is 300. Is this correct and also, when I get my two dishes tuned in and I want to then put the switch on do I need to set the dish to 500? I live near Hamilton, Ontario and I am using the elevations and azimuths based on this area. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am loosing my mind trying to get this dish pointed correctly. Didn't have any problems with finding the 119.

I just read in another site that if you take the lnb off one sat the one that can't get the one ten and tape it ot secure it somehow to the 119 bet 3/4 inch lower that that will solve your proble I am gonna try that and see if it works
