    Lnb C

    Yes it does appear that way. I am just curious about sat 119 signal. I dont order anything forigen anyway. Perhaps that why it dosent detect. But I did just plug in lnb c like you said and it seems to be working. Just an update. I called DTV and order the HD package. Went out for a bit came...

    Built in switch

    Ok looking at my dish I do have a spot for LNB C. I pulled of the protective plastic cover and saw 1 input. I assume that is for HDTV. So I am also assumeing perhaps my dish does have a built in switch. How does someone check for that. Is there something I need to do?

    Built in switch

    Thanks ok I see. Just having trouble getting anything on 119 degrees. If my 101 is pointed correctly shouldn't 119 also be there?

    Built in switch

    Terk multiswitch

    Well I hooked up both DVR's today. I would have to say it went easy. The 3x4 switch worked fine. Both dvr's are running fine as well so far. I will keep a good peek on both. The only thing I happen to see today and wonder about is this. Even though I have a phase 2 dish with 2 LNB's. All my...
