Dish Network Satellite Question

don't know what mirror feed is but you certainly can feed two TVs from one receiver running the same programs,etc.
I have one receiver that has two receivers built in and can watch/operate individually.

My setup as follows:
My Xfinity STB has RCA video/L-audio/R-audio.
From STB RCA out goes to "box with many buttons". Rear TV feed via RF (channel 3) Same channel as STB/front TV and std. def. but it works.

What do you mean by mirror? If watching the same channel on two TV's I believe it is more the connections than the hardware. I must admit I pounded nails for a living but I do remember taking tubes out of the TV down to the local hardware store that had a tube tester and a supply of replacements.

Maybe I'm using the term mirroring wrong. The dish tech kept referring to it as mirroring.

I have 1 cable connected to the dish. It goes into the camper and connects to a triplexer behind the receiver. There are 3 cables coming out of the triplexer. One goes into SAT 1 Input and the other cable goes into SAT 2 Input on the receiver. I understood him as referring to that as mirroring. One dish cable feeding two receiver inputs. I do not use the 3rd cable on the triplexer. I have TV 2 connected directly to the receiver TV 2 output.

I can't get any signal out of SAT 2 of the triplexer. I can adjust the dish to get a signal strength of 50+ on SAT 1 but SAT 2 doesn't even recognize the dish is connected. I changed triplexers with a newer style from the house system and had no joy. He was saying my MP1 dish will not feed both outputs of the triplexer. I question that being accurate. How does the triplexer know what dish is connected to it? His next sentence was "We can upgrade you to Hopper". Throughout the whole conversation, all he wanted to do is upgrade me to Hopper.

This use to work in my house, but with a different dish.

No such thing as mirror feed.

I see that it supports 2 receivers. You will need a 2nd reciever.

My receiver is a dual tuner 322.

I discovered I have a Dish Pro Plus system. I suspect that my DPP triplexer has failed on the SAT 2 Output, and then I used an incompatible triplexer from the house to test it. I ordered a new DPP triplexer.

I found a Dish Pro Plus Twin LNBF head to mount on my old dish, but I haven't figured out how to combine the 3 outputs from it into a single cable. There is a part I haven't identified yet. This LNBF is $160. If I have to go there, I might as well just start over with a new system

that sounds like one of my receivers. one remote is operated line of sight and the other side is IR or UF or magic. don't remember how many leads there are from the dish however.

You are correct sir. The remote for TV2 is UHF. There is an antenna on the back of the receiver for this remote.

I've learned a lot in the past 12 hours. I didn't realize what I have was new technology in 2004. This is really old stuff.

There are 3 ports on the the LNBF I'm looking at for the dish. I now realize that both 110 and 119 can be received from either of 2 of those ports. I thought 1 was 110 and the other was 119 and I needed to somehow tie them together. I still have not determined if the Dish 1000.2 will work with my 322 receiver.

Would you know if the MP1 is capable of providing a proper signal from a single cable to a dual tuner receiver through a DPP triplexer or diplexer? This is what Dish Network is telling me it can't do.

I can't answer any of your questions. Hopefully somebody with more knowledge will chime in. You could also ask questions in the satellite forums on-line.
