I want to upgrade to 921 and am trying to figure out what kind of equip i have currently. After looking on the roof and at several diagrams I believe have a dish 500 with 2 legacy LNBF's (two LNBF's with a black and white wire from each (total four wires) connected to the antenna.

At the bottom of the atenna/dish stand two single black cables exiting to their respective sides of the house for their respective tuners. (one line per tuner). I don't see any external switcher as in all the diagrams I've looked at where this setup goes to more than one tuner, just four wires going into the top of the dish (two from each LNBF). and two wires coming out the bottom to the receivers.

My checkswitch info says SW21
Input 1 1 2 2

119 119 110 110
odd even odd even

locked echostar 110 west (this is the only satellite checked).


I intend to replace the dish pvr 508 in one room with the 921. I'll move the 508 and replace the older PVR in the other room. What do I need to do?

I'm not very techinical and don't even know what LNBF stands for..:)
