Background:
I have a triple LNB RCA Oval Sat Dish. I have 3 cables running from the Sat Dish to 3 Sat Receivers. The dish can handle 4 total receivers, and I have coaxial plugges into the first, second and fourth hook up.
The Setup:
In my TV room, I have an HDTV setup, Sony HDTV and an RCA DTC-100. And 2 regular receivers in 2 different bedrooms(Bedroom A and Bedroom B).
The Problem:
If I have only 2 of the receivers hooked up to a power source, everything runs fine. As soon as I plug in the third receiver, I loose the signal and get the "searching for satellites" message at the bottom of my screen.
HOWEVER, if I put the HDTV on an HD Channel(199), both of the regular receivers in the bedrooms will work with no problem. But as soon as I switch off of an HD channel, boom, no more reception on ANY of the TVs...
I was supposed to have an appointment with a Tech today, but he was running late and now he won't be hear until Monday......LAME(and yes I am REALLY mad about taking another day off from work).
I'm *guessing* it has something to do with a bad LNB, but this system was just installed on MLK day...
:frowning:
Any help is appreciated,
