Voltage Polarity Switch.

[kb2kir]

Hi Guys...
I am in a bit of trouble.
I lost the horizontal polarity on my BUD this morning. I traced the problem to the Channel Master voltage/ polarity switch. Model 6101Ifd
I have searched and cannot find one anywhere. They have been discontinued. Are there and substitutes out there ?
I am using separate PMJ series LNBs (one vert. one horiz.) on a Chaparral dual feed.

Joe did you locate one ?

it might be cheaper to go with one of the newer dual c-band lnbf's like most everyone got earlier in the year.

Hi Gabs,
Long time....
I found a source from your suggestions, (maybe I was typing wrong) thanks.
I have several of the new LNBs, but I'm installing a W5 fixed system and I'm not sure that the new LNBs will work with a DSR 910. Correct me if I'm wrong.

yes the 905, 920 & 922 should control a voltage switched lnbf

maybe one of the guys that has one can verify that it does ( its been a while since i tried one) but i think in the options of the receiver it should list
c-band lnb
c & ku band lnb
c band lnbf <--- these should be voltage controled
c & ku band lnbf <--- these should be voltage controled

or you can just test one of your new lnbf's

DSR models 905, 920, 922, 410, and 4200 I know can control an LNBF. As stated above, just look for the correct feed setting in the menu.

Thanks for the assist...
I'm waiting for my 410 to get here.
Should arrive tomorrow. (26th)
Then I'll switch to the LNBF and try to get it working.
