That is how I determined which LNBF was being used for the 119 sat.

I'm not familiar with the Dishpro things. My neighbor has a superdish that does 3 sats, and I'm somewhat familiar with that one, but your dishpro thing is different, so I'm no help. It looks like the fancy dishpro switching is done inside that LNBF on the right. If you had an FTA receiver, like a
Twinhan, you could plug in either of the other two, and verify whether it was receiving odd and even channels, but I'd be hesitant to do that downstream of the switch.
Hopefully someone who knows more about those band-stacking things (or whatever they're called) can help. I've recently dealt with similar problems on my
DTV system (lost 2 receivers, one lost one voltage and could only receive even transponders, the other receiver lost all LNBF voltage, and I had to slave it off another receiver), but the DTV systems are more simple.
But the symptom you refer to, ie working at night, does sound like it could be the LNBF, but I'm not sure how to be certain that it isn't the switch.
