LNB means LOW NOISE BLOCK, it converts the high fregency from the satellite to a much lower frequency that your reciver can be read.

I have the same LNB, it works fine for both receivers in any of four outlets form the LNB. How many reciever do you have? What satellite you are watching?
kayjaig ,,,
=D> Thanks for your reply !!! =D>
I now only have 1 Fortec Lifetime Ultra Receiver. I am watching IA5 97W ...
Yup, I did and have to rescan after the unplug and swapping the cable ...
kayjaig, does your LNB have the label lowband V/H ; hi band V/H on it ?
I am asking because right now I have the cable goes into H of hi band . If I have the second cable from upstair goes into V of hi band. I have to rescan in order for the channels to appear and I noticed that it has a diffrent set of channels after rescan. On the V hi band I can see channel 1-99 but not higher ... and the H is opposite, cannot goes lower than 99 on the remote ... It has to be channels 100 and up ...
Is it because of the V/H { vertical/horizontal } different ? or ...
Do you think because I only have 1 receiver that is the cause of it ?
I tried to use the regular Y switch { 2 cables : downstair and upstair to 1 cable to that H Hi Band } but no luck... The signal must be loss when splitting like that , right ?
It 's not required to use the 4 way diseqc right ? ... not unless if I have 2 dishes ....
:mozilla_smile: thanks in advance for " another " reply/replies ... :mozilla_laughing:
