Hey there

Whats your preference when it comes to LNBs with the pinwheel. I hooked up a dish 500 with a legacy Twin lnb to it. the first night it saw both sats fine. Turned off the unit, now i can only get a signal on one sat no matter what. Get the same issue if i hook up the nfusion HD box as well.
I have always used legacy older lnbs but have heard DP LNBS may work better with fta boxes??

Just curious what has worked best for you guys.

Thanks.

Pinwheel does not like OCS-DP DPP LNBs yet. It is supposed to do quite well with old legacy LNBs. It seems to play well with diseqc too. The twin should default each LNB to its own sat. Suggest you try a diseqc switch to see if that cures your problem.
