I am setting up a 3500sd with a DP Plus (Charlie installed dish for sub). Everything works right except that I can't get Echo 110 (8.6) to pick up. All of the 119 come in and any duplicate on 110 of 119 come in but none of the 110 (8.6) can be picked up. My DP plus (older model) has 1 connector for the 119 side and 1 connector for the 110 side and I run them to 2 different receivers and all channels come in on both. The one Charlie set up has 2 connections on the 119 side and 1 on the 110 side, why is that? Are both on the 119 side usable? I should be able to hook the 3500sd to the 119 side and the sub to the 110 side and still get all channels on both, correct? So why is it that I'm not picking up any of the 110 signals. This type of lnb (DPP twin) doesn't need a switch, correct? It's built in, isn't it? Being that charlie installed, it should be aimed right, but what are the AZ, LONG,and offset to be able to pick up 119 and 110?

Thank you

DPP Dish Pro plus my finding is these don't work with fta, Some claim they do but none of mine ever did.

dishpro + i did this go to antenna setup and set 119 to 1
110 #2 and i ran a rg6 cable from my 91 sat to the other port on lnb and set it to #3. it didn't look good to begin with it
wouldn't switch. i would change channels to one of the other
sats and when it didn't switch i would power off with remote
and back on after a couple of times it work perfect just like
it had to learn what i wanted. i no, sounds weird. i'm
watching tv wright know no problem.but it does not like more
than 1 receiver. but does any of them.
