Dish setup info required

I have a bev dish with two Dish LNB's mounted in a bracket that has both LNB's looking straight at the dish. Which one do you put on 119, looking from behind the dish, the left or the right?? The dish is also made to skew altho its a round dish. I was told to put the one lnb on 7 or 119 and then the skew would bring in 8-10 or 110, but have to figure out which is which, By the way there is no built in switch, I'm hooking both up seperately,

I thought we where only here for DVR, and PVRs setup, but your question is simple, if facing behind the dish, pan infront of you the LNB on your (LEFT) will always be 119. simple
hope that helps.

Most Twin,s (Legacy) and (pro) LNBs by DN provider are clearly marked on each side of the LNB, from holding it into your hands, left side will always be 119.0w, right side 110.0w.
Only until you get to a Superdish, SD105, or SD121, does the LNB postions change, also on the newer release's of the Dish1000.2 the LNB configuration is different, this dish looks like a PhaseIII by Dtv, but ofcourse is completely different.
Hope this is alittle more info for you,
