If that is the Bell OEM Lnb it is a single Lnb with dual outputs, you will only be able to get 1 sat with it. You will need to put on a yoke or bracket to attach another Lnb to get sat 91.

It would help if you would post the settings you are using with the CNX. If you are using a twin lnb, you don't need the diseqc switch. You only need to run the feed directly to your receiver and use the correct switch settings.

As Stman said, remove the switch inbetween the CNX and the LNB and run the LNB direct to the CNX. Your settings will depend on what kind of LNB you are using (Dishpro or Legacy). If it's a Legacy Twin LNB set Diseqc setting to None and your MDS settings should be.....
Satellite - 91
Diseqc - None
TP Frequency - 12224
LNB - 11250
22Khz Tone - Off
Multi-Dish Switch - SW42 Dish 1
Search Options - All channels
LNB Power - On
Satellite - 82
Diseqc - None
TP Frequency - 12224
LNB - 11250
22Khz Tone - Off
Multi-Dish Switch - SW42 Dish 2
Search Options - All channels
LNB Power - On
If it's a Dishpro Twin LNB (some Bev receivers now support DP technology) set MDS setting to None and the Diseqc settings should be......
Satellite - 91
Diseqc - 1
TP Frequency - 12224
LNB - Dishpro1
22Khz Tone - Off
Multi-Dish Switch - None
Search Options - All channels
LNB Power - On
Satellite - 82
Diseqc - 2
TP Frequency - 12224
LNB - Dishpro1
22Khz Tone - Off
Multi-Dish Switch - None
Search Options - All channels
LNB Power - On

Thanks for the replies guys
No this is not a legit bell LNB I buyed from sat guy locally , it is actually a dish LNB, as I said LNB has dual output for connecting two reciever, one output should give both 91 and 82 because the switch is built in. Now on my legit bell reciever I am getting both but on my CNX it just shows 82 only. I will try to connect directly to CNX without diseq sw and lets see If Can get it ot not, but If I get it I will lose my 119 and 110.
Thanks

You can use a 22khz switch to add it to your system and keep the diseqc with 119 and 110. Just put the 22khz between the receiver and diseqc, connect the Bev lnb to the on side, add the 22khz setting for those satellites, and the diseqc will go to the off side. It's always a good idea to state all the satellites you are working with up front so you can get the best answers. :)

I suspect you might have a Legacy Twin LNB. Take a look at the attachment at this link and see if you can ID what you have. http://www.satfix.net/showthread.php?t=2560
Until you verify what you have we are just guessing at the fix.

What kind of LNB/LNB's are you using for 110 & 119?

I am using standard circular LNB for 110 and low freq for 119 and 118, but question here is not about 110 and 119

Can you explain this in a drawing or a picture, thanks

The type of LNB's you are using on ALL sats involved will decide what is the best switch to combine the feeds to your receiver. When asking for help we need all the information on everything in your set-up.

Use settings as posted above in post#4 by Maverick for the Legacy twin lnb with diseqc turned to "OFF" and use the legacy switch settings or multi dish settings as posted..SW42 dish#1 for 91 and SW42 dish#2 for 82...not familiar with the dish/antenna setings of that receiver...in some cases if available you also set lnb type to Legacy twin lnb#1 for 91 and Legacy twin lnb#2 for 82....connect straight from lnb to receiver(no inline switches needed)...Now if you want to combine those 2 sats with 119/110 to the fta receiver than connect from lnb to one port of diseqc(example #3) and then turn diseqc settings for both 91 and 82 to that port#.....along with the legacy settings and diseqc setup it should switch between all 4 sats just fine....of course that would also depend upon the type lnbs being used for 119/110 as stated by Maverick...be certain to ground the switches if not already grounded
