Hello

Trying to help a friend out on a converted cnx nano2 with a dish 500+( 100,118 and 119) on with a 4X1 diseqc

It seems on the single eye DP 118/119 lnb, we are having issues with some tps missing quality on 118. When I plug the same box into my setup with a cb2008a lnb and 4x1 switch, these tps have quality

I read somewhere that you must use this special dp lnb with a DP 34 or 44 switch. Is this correct? On another forum a poster had the same issue but was unable to solve it.

Is this problem caused by the dp lnb not being used with the dp34/44? Do we need this switch to get those tps back on his system? Or is there another reason why certain tps wont come in?


thks

If it's the DP dual LNB for 110 and the special DP LNB setup for 118/119 then you have to use the DP rated switch, a DP34 switch would work the best for this install.

Look at this link for a PDF on the installation of this type of setup.
