DPP Twin receiving only 110

Why would a DPP Twin setup with Port 1 - 119 and Port 2 110 show only channels from 110.

Setup details - one output from LNBF feeds a DP Dual tuner receiver. The other output feeds a sonicview 360. Dish dual tuner works fine but SV360 is seeing only 110 , never 119.

Thanks

There are DP(dishpro) LNBs and there are New DPP(dishproPLUS) LNBs.
The DPP LNBs can be IDed by "PLUS" on the LNB label or by the fact they have 3 ports instead of 2 or 4 found on DP TWIN or QUAD LNBs.
DPP LNBs use a new internal 6x4 switch, along with using a "stacked" IF signal the IF signal can also be separated to feed 2 tuners from one cable, this internal switch can NOT be controlled by an FTA receiver.

DPP44 switch is for adding 4 DP LNBs to a DN system and these do work with FTA receivers using DP LNBs and the proper channel lists.

Switch in DPP Twin may have been stuck on 110. Connecting a dish receiver and doing a Check Switch may have unstuck this switch to provide access to 119.
