Hi all,
I had a second Satellite setup to receive Foreign programming on channels 2001-2003 (Directv). The installer said the box couldn't support a two satellite setup (Triple LNB HD and a Single LNB international) and gave me a RCA box instead...My Sony box was much better and I was wondering whether I could use it with this setup. They put a 6x8 Multiswitch on it and connected the Triple LNB to the 101/110 inputs and connected the international into a Flexport..I hooking up the Sony box in but it would only recognize Sat A, and not B,C..
I don't use the Directv HD channels so I don't know why they installed that to begin with. (I use off air HD)...Anyone have a guess to whether I can make this work? I tried calling Sony Support but a disinterested operator told me it wouldn't work....I can't think of a reason why it should..In the manual it says the Directv channel range is variable.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks so much for your help!
