Tri-Americas Satellite Switching

If your antenna is equipped with a Tri-Americas LNB, you don't need
to swap the LNB inside the antenna when you switch between
DIRECTV U.S. and DIRECTV Latin America services. The LNB can
receive satellite signals from either service.
However, when you switch between a DIRECTV U.S. satellite (101W
or 119W) and the DIRECTV Latin America satellite (95W), you need to
set the switch on the 22KHz tone generator to the correct position for
the selected service (refer to the Installation Guide for wiring details):
