Can't get anything from 110

[jeff006]

I have a DishPro system (installed by Charlie) working with 110, 119, and 148. Two dishes are connected via a DP-21 switch. When I set it up with Pansat, 119 and 148 work fine, but I can't get any channels from 110. The following satellite settings are the same for all three satellites:
LNB Power: On
LNB Type: Standard
LNB Local-Freq: 11250
22KHz: Off

DiSEqC is #1 for 119 and #4 for 148. For 110 I have tried every DiSEqC option (#1, #2, #3, #4, OFF), but when I run a Scan TP (e.g. on 12370), I always get either channels for the same TP frequency on 119 or on 148 and never for 110.

I know that the problem is not with dishes because everything does work with Charlie's receiver. Please let me know what I am doing wrong.

I take it that you have 148 Sat separate and a Dish Pro for 119 and 110. Dish Pro has two wires, one for 119 and one for 110 LNB's. Your system should work if you use the wire that is hooked to the 119 side of the Dish Pro system hooked into the switch 21 and the 148 wire hooked into the switch 21, with a single wire out of the switch 21 to the receiver. Let the 110 wire stay disconnected from the Dish Pro system. It is designed for Dish Network receivers.

If this does not work, then you will need to use three single LNB's and exclude the Dish Pro. You can also wait for other advice.

Yes, I have two dishes:
1) A bigger one for 110 and 119
2) A smaller one for 148

There is one wire from each of these dishes going into DP21 and just one wire going out of DP into Pansat. I have a limited access to the roof, and I am wondering if anything can done without touching the dishes or DP21.

Well the Dish Pro is a funny animal. It has a built in switch and that is why I gave you those instructions. It will pickup 119 and 110 on a single feed wire. It is built for Two independent receivers, one coax will give you both 110 and 119. So you would need to follow the instructions above to get it to work. Anyway, thats my opinion. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, I still can't get on the roof. However, what I did notice from the ground is that there is no wire going into DP21 from the bigger dish. Instead, there is an old wire from my old outside antenna connected into DP21. I can't see how the dish is connected to that old wire, but what might be the reasons Charlie's installer used that old wire to connect the bigger dish to DP21?
