Finally, thanks to all. I made a temp tripod to test different locations around where I had my original 500 and yes it was a LOS issue. I am still trying to tweak the location before I cement a post but on the original non modified signal screen I get 105 on 119, 100 on 110, and 65 on 129. Still...

I am using the point dish screen on the 301. The 722 has much lower 45-51 on the "modified" signal meter. I am going to try and get 61.5 with the 500. Does that have a stronger signal then 129? Thanks for all the input. I will try the suggestions this upcoming weekend and hopefully it will work.

North Dakota 581. Yes I still have the other Dish. If I use that for 129 only would it be a stronger signal, meaning would the possible branches be less of an isssue? One the 1000.2, If I have a stronger 119 (90) and with 110 slightly less (82) and 129 (0) could that mean that I am onto the 119...

Thanks for the input. It looks to have a clear shot to the south, that being said there are 2trees on the street that I have split in between for the current signal. I can remount the Dish left or right...with the high signal on 110 +119 and the location of the 129 sat location up there,would it...

I had a new 1000.2 installed free by "Dish installer" not a local company. It took him 6 HOURS to do the job. He mounted the dish on the roof and I had very low signal's on 119-110-129 with periodic signal lose. Called Dish CS and they sent a guy back and said he did the best at tweaking the...

Thanks to all for the help. I hooked up a standard 34 switch to one lnb and have the 3 receivers working. Great forum here as I have learned a lot. Thks B

A little confused now. Reading thru some other threads, it sounds like just switching out the 2 old LNB for the Quad and leaving the dish pointed at the 119 sat will not work. If I understand, I need to allign the dish with the Dish 500 info with the skew, elavation and azimuth. I do have the y...

Thanks all for the help! I tried switching the cables and running check switch and the receivers do not detect any switches. Even if I am not getting a signal the switches should be detected, correct? I guess I got what I paid for (used "working" quad on ebay. I guess I have to go to the next...

OK I got a used legacy quad today. While it is still pointed at the 119 sat, I hooked up the quad and the 3 receivers, and..........nothing. I reconnected the dual and had a 103 strength. Can I get a signal using the quad pointed to one satelite or does it have to be used with the 2 satelite...

Thanks for the help, I take it the legacy quad has the switch built in?

I do have a 500 dish being used in the standard set up, pointed to 119. If I get another dual lnb and line it up to get both 119 and 110, what exactly would I need to get into today's more common setup......... The receivers are a 301, 3700, and a 3900 and I already have 3 lines running into the...

Thanks for the help. B

Would a quad LNB work as well, I already have the 3 lines running into the house. Thanks for the help. B

I have a standard old setup, Dish 300 pointed at 119 with a dual LNB. I currently have 2 receivers hooked up I am looking to connect to a 3rd. The receivers are a 301, 3700, and a 3900. If I understand the 2 4 digits are older legacy receivers. Can I run one line from the dish and split it to...
