A friend just installed a triple LNB dish for me on a 15 foot pole. We get 101 and 119 but nothing on 110. There are no line of site issues. We have one coax cable for each of three receivers coming directly from the triple LNB to each receiver. There are no switches or anything else between the receivers and LNB. Any ideas?
101/110/119 Problem 110 has no signal

If you are getting 101 and 119, but not 110, and there are no los issues, the only thing I can think of is a bad lnb.
Something is causing the 22khz tone to not make it to the built in switch in the LNB, or the switch in the LNB is not responding to the 22 khz tone.
Let's do the process of elimination...
shouldn't be a line of sight issue, whereas it is possible to lose just the one satellite to line of sight issues, the 110 only being out is rare and pretty obvious if it is blocked.
Are all three not getting 110?
If yes, check your settings to make sure you have the OVAL-3 dish set as your dish, the Oval-2 dish only has sat A and B, 101 and 119, with an optional sat C, 110, so that would also explain it.
If you have it set to Oval 3 and there is no 110 on all three boxes, your problem is NOT your boxes.
Next Question..
When you installed it, did you use new wire? or existing wire.
Whereas it is very rare, occasionally some wire or connectors, will not pass the 22 khz tone that makes the dish lnb switch to the sat c, or 110.
that is the rare instance...
If you feel the wire is perfectly fine, most likely, and all the above didn't fix it. Try a new LNB, either check eBay, or someone on here probably has one they can get to you for real cheap, I know I have about 10 extras laying around my garage.
Also, do you even need the triple sat?

Locals on the triple sat in your area?

Using an older HD box?

We'll try a new LNB today. Yes I need 110 for the HD channels. The wire is existing but is fairly new and was installed with different rolls of coax wire. There are no switches in this setup right just LNB direct to receiver?
The dish should be checked for all signal before raise on the pole.
22 KHz is not the issue - 119W can be used with the signal only.

Use chs 490-494 to verify reception from the various sats.
And, while you are installing a new LNB, run the forth coax.

RIGHT... It can be an issue, but if he is getting the 119, then the 22khz tome is making it through...
