I just installed a dual LNB for Echo 7(119) and Echo 6,8(110).... All the channels on 119 are working fine...no problems there....But I keep on getting the same 9 or 10 channels on Echo 6,8 (110 )...They are CBS, NBC, Fox, PBS,Abc and few other local channels ...all 94 of them...I have tried switching the LNBs but 110 is still giving me the same 9 or 10 channels I mentioned above....The Quaity on 110 is around 80% and signal 85%...Yet at the bottom of Motorised System It says ( Found: Unknown Satellite (12.9W)...I am not sure what I am doing wrong...My location is torronto not sure if that makes any difference because 110 and 119 are working fine for my brother who lives 10 minutes from my house...

Are you using a motor?
also, if it is a dual LNB, (thats a single eyeball with 2 outputs), it's only good for 1 satellite...
If you mean a TWIN, (2 eyeballs encased) then thats good for 110.0W and 119.0W) you only need to use 1 cable from the LNB...and what you also need to do is get 110;0W in FIRST...then skew in 119.0W...your settings would be correct, EXCEPT for the LNB type...If it is a TWIN, you'll need to set the LNB type to OCS-DP.
The dual is called that because you can hook up 1 satellite to 2 receivers...The TWIN (if your using a DP, or DPP dish (Dish Plus, or Dish Plus Pro), is designed for 2 satellites and 2 receivers...Are you using a switch?
Please let me know exactly what type of LNB you are using...I think we can help with a little more information.

I had a similar problem. It's possible the skew is not correct. Also I saw no mention of a switch for the LMBs. I've tried cheap switches and they have never worked for me. Spaun seems to work best.
