Problem Locking onto Satellites with more than One Sub Box On!!!!!!!
Hello everyone, this is my first post on this forum, so please bear with me!!(very glad to be here).I have ONE eliptical 24inch dish with THREE LNBs, running approx. 100ft from the dish. I have FOUR Viewsat subs with the following setup: Satellite_____91______110_______119 LNB Power___On_______On_______On LNB Type __Standard__Standard_Standard LNB Freq____11250____11250____11250 22 KHz______Off_______Off______Off TP Freq_____12224____12224____12239 Diseqc 1.0___Port1_____Port2____Port3 Motor_______Off_______Off______Off Legacy SW___None_____None____None I also have a 3x4 Multiswitch, 1 viewsat disque switch & 1 Cheita heavy duty switch. I can get/switch SATS on ALL 1000+ channels with only ONE sub box on ONLY. However, when I put ALL 4 of them on & we change channels, it will go into autoroll and/or stick to another satellite!! I tested it today, & I can change channels with no problems IF that channel is on the SAME satellite that it is currently 'locked' into. Example: sub1, sub2, sub3, sub4 - can be on different channels on SAT 119(ex. - channel 105 or 162), but if someone changes sub2 to a 91 SAT channel(like channel 2250), ALL of the other boxes tend to freeze/autoroll. If I change all of the subs to the 91 sub channel, no matter what channel, all subs will, within a few seconds lock into their respective 91 sub channel!! I've been pulling my hair out for 3 months now. We have replaced the LNB's, upgraded the switches to Cheitas, reaimed the dish(getting between 75-93% quality), tried a signal booster(no significant change). But the problem persists. Again, all of my Viewsat subs can get/switch between satellites with no freezing/switching issues with ONE sub box on @ a time. If more than one sub is on(esp. if they are on different SAT channels) the problem occurs. Do I need another type of 'switch' if I have 4 boxes going @ a time? Do I need another dish just for 91? H-E-L-P!!! ![]()
