I need help; I have echostar receiver and 2 satellites 61.5 and 119. When I use sw21 and run switch, it says DP Quad or DP Twin and pick only 61.5 or 119 satellite.
Please if any one help me why ?

TJ, what kind of dn recr and lnb do you have ?
I assume you may be using legacy lnbs and hd or dvr recrs. If you have basic dn recr you are ok to use sw21. BUT if it is DH recr or DVR I would use two separate legacy LNBs and need not to use dish pro lnb and you can use sw21. I assure you that will work. Let me know what you have?

TJ,
If you are using dish pro lnb on a basic recr, you can't use sw21. Get dp switchs.
I wonder you still have your basic recr and not the legacy lnbs. TJ now you have two options what ever you find it cheaper.Either get dp switch or get legacy lnb and you can sw21 with that.

If ya have Dish Pro LNB's U MUST use a DP switch, if ya want to combine the 119 and the 61.5 sats into 1 cable....plain and simple..regardless of what receiver/s U may have.. can't be more clear than that...

BTW....if ya have a DP Twin or Quag LNB, ther are already made and configured to ONLY receive satellite signals that are 9 degrees apart....like the 110-119..or 82-91....

so U will need 2 dishes for the 61.5 and the 119..and ya can't mix and DP and Legacy LNB's from those 2 dishes..so make sure the 2 dishes BOTH use either Legacy (non Dish Pro) LNB's ..or BOTH have Dish Pro LNB's..

At some point in time justforhaha's SW21 got stuck in one postion in her brain. Since then her thinking processes are all one track.

A PIECE of (Unsolicited) ADVICE for LK......

You had your time, Old timer....

You done your share of good,
and people who remember are grateful for it....

but now things have changed....

Leave this forum to the new wave of helpers.

They got a more Global vision of the things to come
and posses the advanced technological skills and knowledge
required for this new FTA era
we are living in.


You gotta learn when your time's come up....
Time to retire....


Listen here Old timer....
Its better to Burn Out than to Fade Away
(in disgrace, I might add)....
