Lightning Strike, New (used) LNB, now Dish 300 instead of Dish 500

[kycattlerancher]

I need a little help here. I had a lightning strike that took out my LNB. I had a Dish 500 system (legacy). I replaced the LNB with a used Dish 500 Legacy. One problem, now that I have switched LNB's my system only has the capabilities of the previous Dish 300 subscription package and I've lost the additional benefits of the Dish 500 system. What do I need to do to get the extra programming I am paying for. Many thanks.

So if I understand this right, you replaced a Legacy Twin LNB with another
Legacy Twin?

Did you run a check switch..sometimes that needs to be done..It sounds like the check switch would take care of it as it isn't registering the 110 satellite.
