Re: Newbie need help
you run one cable from each lnb to a diseqc switch and then one long cable to the receiver. you need to have the ports set right in the antenna settings.

Re: Newbie need help
I have a similar setup. Unless you have a HD FTA receiver, you do not need 61.5. There is nothing on it really other than the HD programming.

Ok buddy, your LNB is Dish pro plus and has a built-in switch... In your 61.5 is port 3--110 is port2--119 is port1.... They are all the same antenna setting except the port.
