Re: What do I have?

Looks like I need some sort of sleeve for the lnb to slide into. LNB wont fit directly in the arm.

Re: What do I have?

LNB is D shaped and the arm is rectangle, and I had to break the yolk to get it off the arm, the screw was stripped out.

Re: What do I have?

Most new receivers include a disequ switch; why not leave the LNB and coax configuration in place (for a second receiver or switch over) and hook it up as is with the new disequ? (also don't wash the bird poo off it may not work :-);

If you take the Y-yoke off you'll need a single D yoke to mount a single legacy LNB; hence my suggestion to leave both in place;

Re: What do I have?

If you're only pointing to one sat you do not need any switch.

Re: What do I have?

Does anyone know if its possible for me to catch 61.5 in California? The elevation setting is only 16.9, kinda looks like the lnb is almost pointed straight down.

Re: What do I have?

What should my settings be for 61.5 using a legacy twin lnb, running one receiver straight through.

Re: What do I have?

How do I know if it has a switchor not, It had sw21 switches hooked up to it but I removed them.. Man i'm lost, do any of these settings make a difference in weather I get a signal and quality?
