[QUOTE="ralphmagno, post: 737524, member: 189146"] Hello, i don't understand what the problem is with this multiswitch. how many satellite possions are you trying to set up?? let us say you want 2 possions hotbird at 13 degrees and astra 19 degrees. then you would need 2 lnb quads with 4 lines each going to a 8 input mulitswitch. each lnb has a different output because the bands are devided into different bands H low.H high,V low and V high. If you put the wrong line into the wrong input it wou't work at all. then your receiver must have diseq tone to gererate to switch as well as 22 khz tone. sky uk boxes do not have a diseq tone so this box is out. you also mention opening several multiswitches ,is it possible that several of these were new and now they are all bad?? so to fix this we need to know the following info 1 what satellite possions are you receiving? 2 who installed this system was it yourself or a pro? 3 what lnb do you have (if it is not a 4 output with all the bands seperate and the proper band going to the proper input it will not work) 4 what size dish are you using in your area? 5 what type of receiver to pick what service?? 6 what type of mulitswitch are you using?? if this is a do it your self and you have never installed this type of system the chances are not good you would get it sorted because there are too many variables involved. just trying to help ralph:confused: [/QUOTE]
