Re: OK, need serious help.... please

Believe it or not, its working, as in if I'm at a channel, it plays fine and all I have to do is change some channels and then the signal is lost (I'm lost in translation). but I read and read and I believe I figured out whats wrong with my settings.
I an using DPP44, first mistake I made was I didn't connect the right LNb in right port, 119 should be 1, 110 should be 2 and 129 should be 3 (I'm not using the 118.7 port on the dual lnb so not sure if I can leave it out) secondly I didn't choose the disecq settings and left it off.
I need to use the Disecq and use the right port numbers. hopefully that should make it work, right? did I miss anything? I will try this today evening when I go home, but my biggest problem will be the cables from the 110, 119 and 129 are running underground and I cannot tell which one is which by the time they get to the switch (my dish is like 100 ft from the switch due to trees).

Any ideas how to figure out which cable comes from which bird to get the ports right?

Thanks for all your help
