Hi everyone. I have a dish 500 with a quad lnf?? There is 2 lenes and 2 ports on each one. I am having trouble being able to get both satellites at the same time. If I get 119 and get it locked in when I change the satellite in the menu then 110 isnt locked in anymore. I thought they were fairly close to each other but I cant seem to be able to get them. Another question I have is with the quad do I need a switch of some kind? When I read the manual it doesnt really clarify it for me. Dont they just have a single coax cable in one of the ports going to the receiver?? Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
