legacy twin/quad antenna settings
legacy twin antenna settings.
119
LNB type:standard
LNB freq:11250
22KHz: off
legacy SW: sw42 dish 1 (for the quad use sw44 dish 1)
110
LNB type:standard
LNB freq:11250
22KHz: off
legacy SW: sw42 dish 2 (for the quad use sw44 dish 2)
diseqc: OFF/NONE for both birds.
the legacy twin is an old lnb.its a twin like the dp twin in that it works for 110/119 OR 91/82 at the same time.
it is no longer in production.and most people no longer have these.
the legacy twin can be easily identified by looking at this FAT TWIN lnb.
it looks just like the DP TWIN but it will have no writing on it "DP" like the dp twin does.it does not have a diseqc built in,so diseqc will need to be off.
(twin or quad should/may work as either command sw42 or sw44 but correct settings for each are stated above,just don't be surprised if they work either way)
pic of the QUAD.TWIN is the same but just has 2 outputs.

Re: legacy twin/quad antenna settings
this was stated so good for those who wish to combine a 4x1 diseqc to gain extra ports for more lnbs,i have to add it here.just a great job explaining:
(note this will not be the same way for the more common dp twin.please note what thread your in)
thanks s2byus!

Then, the box settings should be:
Satellite:--------------119°---------110°----------61.5°
LNB Power:------------On -----------On------------On
LNB Type:-----------Standard-------Standard-------StandardFrequency:-----------11250--------11250--------11250
Transponder:--------12239--------12224--------12297 or 12326
22khz:------------------Off-----------Off-----------Off
Search options:--------All------------All------------All
Network search:-------On------------On------------On
Diseqc :---------------Port 1--------Port 1----------Port2
Motor:----------------Disable-------Disable------Disable
Legacy Switch:-----SW42 LNB1----SW42 LNB2------Off
