I have a dish 1000.2 that I recently purchased and I was wondering if I had a coaxial cable coming from port 1 (119) and had it connected to my receiver, would I be able to pick up all three satellites 110,119, and 129? Based on another thread I read in this section the 1000.2 has a built in switch. So I would not need a DP44 switch right? I am only connecting the 3 satellite locations to one box. I assume I only need one coaxial line coming from lnb to the receiver. for some reason I cannot get 129 but strangely I am picking up 148? Is it possible to pick of other satellite locations other than what the lnb was designed to pick up?

Help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!
