Hey Ernie,
I'm assuming that you are referring to your first response about having a feed from the LNB being split and I agree that my normal troubleshooting would not have found the source of that problem but would have succeded in causing much cursing and fist pounding. I didn't take that situation into consideration because jfuex confirmed that he did have a seperate feed from the LNB to each receiver.

I also have run into this problem once in years past and thanks to your explination, I now understand the technical reasons for the absolute screwed up symptoms I got that day. I did find the splitter and new it was evil for no better reason than it was rated for 950mhz and dss is in the 2 - 2.2 ghz range. All is clear now. Thanx

Hey jfuex,
I'm still wondering if your all fixed up.
