I am pretty sure, but i want to be 100% before I buy.
will DIRECTV OVAL TRIPLE LNB HDTV PARA TODOS DISH work for dish on getting 119 and 110 birds, and if so i still need the sw21 switch correct?
thx

Make sure it's not a Phase III dish.
Take the DTV internal switch out....Use SW21 to combine signals from 119º & 110º birds for Dishnetwork , leave LNB @ 101º alone for DTV. If the Dish comes with a Sat C LNB on 110º, replace it with a regular LNB.

Yes......I'm still trying to figure why I can hit both birds separately, but can't get 110 when I get 119 tuned in.
It works. Others here have it going, but I'm still fighting mine.
:cool:

If you took the DTV switch out, then it's one of these:
--Bad SW21.
--Bad cabling (cable might be good for IRD, but not with SW21).
--Wrong type of SW21 (i.e DishPro SW21 on a legacy IRD).
--Skew angle is wrong (Turn ONLY the dish left/right, like a car steering wheel).
--Old firmware on IRD.
G'luck
