I have a dtc100 with the triple lnb oval dish, and a dish mounted 4x4 multiswitch. I recently added the sat C kit with the sat C lnb and combiner. Worked great for awhile, but recently I lost all hd sat programming, and upon further checking, lost everything on the B sat ( the Spanish and Chinese channels)as well. HD test channel 99 now shows cartoon network instead of dtv logo. I connected a drd420 rcvr, and B lnb channels work fine, and channel 99 test channel comes in fine, so apparently its not the dish or multiswitch bad, but I did switch the A and B lnbs to be sure. Still no change.
Apparently, the dtc rcvr is not switching to the B lnb correctly. If I connect the C lnb directly to rcvr, I get the HD channels which are on that 110 sat.
If I check the voltage at the sat in terminal with cables disconnected, voltage pulses between 13 and 18V as it should.
Does anyone know what controls the voltage shift from the A lnb to the B-C lnb"s ?
