    Hard to guess without more information, but here is a simple check to start with. Shut off the back power switch of your receiver, then swap out and reverse the 2 cables at the dish LNBs. If 110 now works, you have a bad cable or connector somewhere in the line that doesn't work. If it still doesn't work you may have a bad LNB on the dish. Start with that and we can go from there.

    Make sure 119 is in slot 1 of the switch and 110 in slot 2.
    Make sure in your setting you committed the dishes properly.
    Are you getting 2 green bars for both sats?

    If settings appear correct, then you need to try a do a few tests to see if your hardware is ok.

    Hook up each dish one at a time with no switch and turning the settings off for a switch.
    If 110 still doesn't work, then try swapping the lnb's on the dishes. If you now get 110 to work, then your lnb is no good.
    If 110 still doesn't work, I would then think it is a cable issue.

    Just a few things to try to eliminate some possible problems.

    170 works still. you have to tune to the scramble channel and leave it there until the video tunes in.

    you can perform a google search from whatever brand you choose. They all operate basically the same, its up to you which one you want. Do the leg work, you might learn something. All are the same with the exception of Nuesat, Satopia and nFusion.

    Good Luck

    You really have alot of expansion possiblities with that set-up but after you try Jerry and Brecks suggestion maybe you just need to change the DiSEqC switch, is it possible you disconnected the coax cable with the box on? You would burn out the port immediately, its a safety feature in the switch so your stb or lnb are protected.
