the DishPro logo). You must install your DISH antenna system with either all
DishPro LNBFs and switches or all Legacy LNBFs and switches. If you mix the
two, the system will not work.

and the DishPro receiver. However, you must use only RG-6 coaxial cables
rated for 950 to 2150 MHz. Some cables may say "Swept tested for 2150 MHz."

may cause signal loss. Do not use existing cables such as RG-59. Also, be sure
that any outdoor connections are made using waterproof F-connectors.
