Thats a lot of discussion guys. First, I don't know how but Directv made it work. Last night when I was talking to them, the last thing I was told was have a tech come out and fix after I get home in one week. Then, when I got up this morning, I had an email from from Direct saying they had made a change to me. That was confusing. I was not aware of any change when I had talked to them.
So, I turned the system on and it came on immediately and worked. I still only see good numbers on the 99 and 101, nothing on the 103. There is still one problem, I only have TV on one tuner.On the other, I get the message '771-Signal loss on Satellite 1'. Its possible that I have a cable problem. I am going to chase it some.
With an HR24, one cable on tuner one or one per input on both tuner inputs? When I first tested this system at home, it was wired just like it is now, one coax per input tunenr. I had fund diagrams of how to set this up and it worked perfect at home. So, one cable or two?
You "did" have a cabling problem using the splitter and 2 cables to the DVR. You need to take the splitter out and run the coax from the antenna to the power inserter port with the red dot (to SWM) and then run one coax from the power inserter to tuner 1 on the receiver. If you are using the SWM3 LNB (one housing on the antenna containing the 3 LNB's), the setup in the receiver should be 17: Slimline-3S (SWM).
