Well, that's partially correct. LOF3 of 10,600 Universal would not be for EchoStar or Nimiq - those satellites are DTH circular polarity with a L.O. frequency of 11,250 MHz. I have a feeling that your card(s) allow you to set up to 4 dishes connected with a DiSEqC 4-way switch -- this is likely what it means by LOF1, LOF2, etc. What you would do is set the L.O. frequencies for each dish -- so for example if you had dish 1 as DishNetwork 119, set LOF1=11,250 MHZ. If you had dish 2 and 3 as Nimiq 82 and Nimiq 91, set LOF2=11,250 MHZ and LOF3=11,250 MHZ. Then if you had the 4th dish for T5, set LOF4=10,750 MHZ (if you had a standard LNB; if you had a universal LNB set it to 10,600 MHz). All this is assuming your card(s) support the DiSEqC protocol. Its hard to guess without seeing your setup.
