Red face Re: Here Is The DP Pro LNBs setup For Sonicview

Hi!

Thanks, as always for the great help. I am quite a newbie here, so forgive me if I don't get the lingo.

I understand that you have provided the software setup for twin recievers in this conversation. I already have a Sonicview 4000 which is hooked up for 110. I was just given another dish, which I would like to add to my system.
I have two questions:

1) I know that you can buy some kind of 110/119 bracket that automatically aligns the dish once you have the 110. Do you know what it is called and where I might locate one?

2)I assume I need the "DB PRO LNB" in order to bring the signals together through the receiver. Do I? What is it? Should I expect two cables (one from each dish) coming into the receiver, and then placed in a specific slot, or is there something completely different that I need coming from the dishes which join them together for one incoming feed? If so, what is this called and where do I buy one?

3)once the actual physical changes are made, I expect that I just set the software to the config you have supplied, and then scan 'the birds' one by one. However, usually once you scan a bird you have to accept the change, which auto rewrites over the channels that were previously held. How do I go about scanning each one separately but save both channel lists as one?

Thanks again for all your help!
