connection problem.

[crashnburn]

having a little problem. I just installed Dish500 and made a test connection to my little TV just about 15 feet from where the dish is installed. I was able to pick up 110 and 119 with good signal quality. Tighten all the screws and double check signal again and it still shows 90%+. Then I disconnected the test cable and hook up the cable that runs to the TV about 70 feet away. This time I was able to pick up ONLYsatellite 110. For sure I know the cable is good because I was a former DTV subscriber that just cancel service last week. Anyway, thought something was lose so I checked everything and it's freakin tight as hell but yet no signal for 119.

So I did another test and hook back my test TV from 15 ft away and was able to pick up 110 and 119 again. Disconnect the cable and hook it back to TV 70ft away and again i got signal for ONLY 110. Spend 2 freakin hours and still can't figure out what the hell is going wrong. Any ideas?

I can assume all day long what you are trying to explain but please explain with more definition.. what receiver are you using, what switches are you using, does your dish setup have internal switch or external sw21???

Answer the Q's and maybe we can help you.
