110 & 119 signal using old DTV dish

[bdkjose]

I'm trying to pick up the 110 and 119 signal using the old DTV dish (the one that has the multiswitch on the back of it). I've moved the LNB which was originally on the Sat A 101 slot to the Sat C 110 slot which is the middle, but I only pick up a 119 signal.
I know its much easier to use dishpro to pick up both birds, but i have plenty of these old DTV dishes and I'm trying to pick up both signals for a pansat 2500a.
I was thinking that i have to use a SatB and SatC combiner, but don't know if the pansat will work with that. If you know what my problem is or any idea is greatly appreciated. Thanx

Hi bdkjose,
I am using the same setup. I got rid of the switch on the back of the antenna and routed the cables from the LNB to the diseq switch. I cant remember the slot names but looking from the rear I use the LNB on the right for the 119 bird and the LNB in the middle for the 110 bird. It took me awhile to figure this out, alot of testing, but it works for me. Give it a try. Good luck.

If the dish was originally picking up DTV 101 and 119 you do not have to re-aim the dish. Just move the 101 lnb to the Sat C 110 (middle) position. Remove the Sat A and Sat B feeds from the two lnbs from the 4x switch mounted on the back and connect these two the lnb inputs of a dish SW21 switch. Connect the SW21 switch to your Dish receiver, do a check switch, watch TV.

That is what I was guessing, just wasn't sure about. Your right, once I pick up signal on 101 and 119, then 110 should come in aswell. As soon as I get my pansat, it should give me a good signal strength on both 119 and 110. Thanks for the help guys, and I'll let you know how it all turns out.
