Re: This a pain in my ????????
Are you missing a lot of channels or just a few?

Re: This a pain in my ????????
The more info you can provide the better.
How big is your dish?
How many LNB's do you have
Etc ...

Re: This a pain in my ????????
If you are missing channels on your second reciever, it may be related to the loop out (depending how you have them wired up).
You might want to focus on just getting one going, then introduce the second receiver afterwards.

Re: This a pain in my ????????
Just turn the other box off and remove the sat in cable and see if that does it.

Unplug the unit before you remove sat cable.
