You are aware the linear comes out of the L port on the lnbf correct? You have 2 ports marked with a C and 2 marked with a L. C is for circular and L is for linear. We also need to know how you have each of those ports connected in your system.

thanks for the reply.
yes i am an aware of the port. C L C L
as above my C from lnb connected to diseq/sw port2 ---Lfrom lnb to diseq/sw port1.
i have also tried the remaining C & L but only thing works is CIRCULAR.
i tried 22khz chitah switch -same result.

start by running just the linear coax directly to the motor. Totally bypass the switch. From what you state you have circular operational so it will still be when done fixing linear. You did not post what your receiver settings are for the lnbf

That satellite is hard to lock onto, it took me quite some time to get it working with my linear lnb. make sure you reciever locks onto it. It has to be almost perfectly setup for dishmover to find it.
