Yes you can use that dish for bev, just move it. Your settings would depend on if a switch is used and your port settings; lnb frequency will be 11250.

All depends on the dish . If it is a single lnb dish it should work fine but the 3 lnb affairs (KTI) don't work well for 110/19 - will miss many tps .

Yes, that dish will work for grabbing 1 sat, you can also use that switch to run the 1 sat to 4 receivers (you must connect both ports on the LNB to the switch, one cable to 18v and 1 cable to 13v).

ok i have a problem
i mount the dtv dish and everythink was ok but instead showing nimiq 91 it was showing echo 110 obviously i doing something wrong
i use my vs ultra so that way dont have to unplug my nano to take it outsaid to set the dish
i attach the pic of the setup screen of what i did(not the best quality but still can see the settings) and my s-89 q-91

You need to go further East, your stb is telling you that you are pointing to 110.

just looking at the pic of you 2 dishes set up i could tell its pointed wrond. the one with the single lnb need to pointed to 91w to get bev and by the pic alone it looks like it should be pointed more to the left (if standing behind the dish) it looks like its pointed the same direction as your other dish which probably is 110w. thats why it shows 110 on the blue bar on the vs. tat blue bar tells you what sat is lock in.

ok move the dish, find the sat and get nimiq 91 lock in my vs box, so i plug the dn dish in 13v in and dtv dish in 18v in and nano in r1 out, so far i assume that is correct, my problem is i never deal with switches so now i got no signal in my box from both dishes
wich switch option should i choise in the setup
i'm lost

no that switch wont connect all 3 sat for you. that switch is to get one sat to 4 receivers. the way you have it hoocked up right now is wrong. how many receivers do you have?
dani666
07-23-2010, 10:01 PM
ok so that switch is no good for 2 sats
what about the cnx switch that was include with the box
because i have dual lnb for 110 119 in one dish ......
ok i still lost :noidea:
dani666
07-23-2010, 10:02 PM
i have one nano2
doggy10
07-23-2010, 10:04 PM
if you are using one receiver you can use the swith that came with the nano2. they are cheap switches but should work for now. put 119 in port 1 and 110 in port2 and 91 in port3. just one cable from each lnb. then set up the menu and the ports on the nano2 and scan.

07-23-2010, 10:08 PM
ok let's try it that way
back to work

question
110 and 119 are dual lnb and i have only one cable coming out of the dish
actually there are 2 cables but i use only one to get both sats, now when i put the switch in the set up showing 119 in diseq 1 niwiq on 3 but bicause is only one cable for 110 and 119 is nothing for 110

You can't use a Diseqc or 3x4 switch with a Twin Lnb to combine feeds, you need a SW-21 or 22KHz switch to combine the feeds from the Twin and the Single LNB's........

So long as the DP twin lnb isn't a plus and is just a normal DPtwin you can override the internal switch and use an external diseqc...You need to connect the cable from 119 side of lnb into input port#1 and cable from 110 side of lnb into input port#2 of diseqc switch then use either port 3 or 4 for 91....set diseqc ports to match in dish settings...there have been some reported issues with the internal/external diseqcs conflicting with one another but overall it will work in most scenarios

The pic he posted in post#9 looks like a DP twin logo on lnb and not the DPPlus logo..I could be wrong but that is what it looks like to me

Yeah, I seen that too. I'm just going by what he said in the other thread, he talks about using the "in" port for the 91 LNB :noidea:
