Why the switch?

A Dish 1000 LNB does not need one, it has an internal switch, only the DC power inserter is needed to run the LNB as most FTA receivers can't directly run that LNB.

You would only need an external switch if you needed to run more then two receivers.

And I hope it's a DP44 switch and not an old SW44 switch, the DP LNB needs to run with a DP switch.

hi its a dp44 switch and yes iam running 3 recevers

The snow could have pushed the dish down a bit, with the signal down to around 23% your connectors at the dish may be bad, or the coax may have water in it, only way to check this is to run a new coax directly to the LNB and then down to the switch, and from the switch to the receiver, or directly from the LNB to the receiver, you do need the power supply to run the LNB's, test on sat 119 TP 12457R

as my power supply goes to the basement (1 st recevour down stairs) every thing works perfect strong signal all lnbs switching and working, when i try the other 2 up stairs weak 23-10 signals nouthing, i even tryed to hook direct by passing the dpp switch to tvs up staires nothing what setting would i use? before i was useing dpp settingwhen conected to the switch weather is -30 hopfully i will not have to go on the roof
