Just set up my 2800 and I am only receiving the odd channels on 119 and the receiver when doing a check switch will not detect any switches. I have it hooked up to a DP twin lnb. My 301 and 501 work fine off the same setup so I have narrowed it down that the lnb may be the problem. Should I being using Legacy lnb's?

No a 2800 will not work with DP anything....

You can get a dishpro adapter to let you use legacy receivers with a dp lnb.

Thanks for your replies. So what I gather is that if I use a Legacy lnb for 119 that will work and or a Sw21 switch to use for both 110 and 119 if I have a Dish 500 dish.

Depending on which LNB head you get.. The internal head, looks like one whole piece or the dual, has two heads which requires the sw21 switch..

But either one will get you 119 and 110..
