I have a 3 lnb system at my cabin and I am using my box from home with current card which I have the slimline at home, the box recognizes all 3 dishes, 101, 110, & 119 but I cant get them all at once just one per movement and i am set to the correct info on the box, anyone know what i should do next?
Thanks
 
I CANT GET ALL 3 SIGNALS AT ONCE ONLY SEPERATE AT ONCE

I have a 3 lnb system at my cabin and I am using my box from home with current card which I have the slimline at home, the box recognizes all 3 dishes, 101, 110, & 119 but I cant get them all at once just one per movement and i am set to the correct info on the box, anyone know what i should do next? And i get all even number transponders on 101 but no odd numbers and i get all transponders on 110 and 119. I have literally been out there for 6 hours and i am frustrated.
Please help
Thanks

dish- wnc triple feed multi sat lnb
model# au2-f1

receiver- model# d12-100
swm-1 satellite in is what it says where the coax goes in.

my home zip is 55110
my cabin zip is 54751

I am using one cable from sat to box going to only 1 t.v.
dish says built in multi-switch

any other info needed let me know

thanks again

Tune to chs 490-494, these verify reception on those sats.

What transponders have signals on the three sats?
Do you get any odd TPs from 119?

Have you set your "Tilt" correctly ?
 
Sorry about the duplicate threads, this was my first post. I aligned my dish by the receiver which is 72 azimuth and 35 tilt and 206 direction in which i get 110 but nothing else. on 110 and 119 i get all transponders. I would be happy just getting 101 and watching something but the receiver wont let me and I also tuned to 490-493 and it just says searching for signal.
Thanks
 
206 degrees is the azimuth (direction), 35 is the elevation (from level) and 72 is the skew (dish needs to be slanted to the right of horizontal).

I bet that if you use the numbers for the parameters that they are actually associated with, you'll have much better luck.

You aren't aligned properly. FYI, with 101 you should get all 32 transponders with the exception of a few spot beams. On 110, you should only get 3 TPs, 8, 10, and 12. With 119 you can only get TPs 22-32, with the exception of a few spot beams. I'm guessing that your 110 LNB is receiving the 101 sat. So try moving the dish 9 degrees to the west. and verify your alignment parameters as harshness pointed out.
