I have a 75cm e dish, I have purchased a second receiver. I want the same programing on this as my first, do I just run the coax from the b side of the multi switch to the second receiver? I ordered my programming but so far all I see is the preveiw ch. 299,200,600. I received hits and the ipg has downloaded, but I have not received any programming. My first receiver has a signal of 99 and a quality of 86 on 299, my second receiver has a signal of 20 and quality of 86, however the reading on the scale that you use to tune your dish reads around 70. I checked the data status and in appears to have the correct download, it ends in 77, so I am wondering if something is wrong or maybe my provider hasn't completed their end of it. I have had my first receiver up and running for about 4 months without a hitch. Thanks in advance.

PS this is a Starchoice receiver.

yeah all you need to do is connect each reciever to the multi-switch independantly 1 in a 1 in b and it should work unless youy switch is pooched.

Try removing the card waiting 10secs and re-inserting the card....

Starchoice/Motorola products don't use cards

Call Starchoice for a re-hit on the programming.
