When a 22K switch fails...

[techno935]

What does it do? Has anyone seen anything common to what I'm experiencing?

I re-positioned a few dishes here and there to get em closer to the ground for hurricane season. Blah blah long story short....

I have G10 on the 22K "on" side and 119 west on the "off" side of my 22 k switch.

With the 119 dish connected, G10's signal sux and goes in and out. 119 is unaffected. I haven't tried the reverse yet but i'm wondering if this is a case of a bad switch. Thanks in advance.

bad cable maybe?

When a 22k switch goes out it doesn't work (only the 0k side works)

I'm on the reverse now:

G10 - usual signal stregnth (improved from before) (22 k "off")

119 - Miami OTAs come in with downgraded signal and no NASA. (22 k "on")

It sounds like the switch. I use a 22k between my KU & DBS on the motorized and the numbers are the same if the 22k is involved or not
