I use to have one Dish 300 sat. ,now I have added Dish 500 (110 and 119), I have legacy twin Lnb (two output), I 've connected both sats. using Disq. and ouptput of disq I use signal splitter and send them to my two viewsat ultra for two room set up, I have connected both line with line amplifire because from sat. to receiver is longer than 25ft.
my problem is when I watch channel like (TNT, TBS which are on 119) than on the other receiver if I try to watch channels which is on sat 148 ,it gives me searching for signal. As soon as I turned the receiver off than I can watch those channels...
Another question is If I use Dishpro Plus twin lnb on dish 500, is it going to work or the fta is only good with legacy lnbs?
I have not tried but if someone has this kind of set up than it 'll be helpful.
Peter, forget all this splitter business get yourself a dp34 switch,hook up to 3 satellites and up to 4 receivers,problem solved,switch about $30 on e bay
