Short version: Does anyone have a working diseqc 1.1 + 1.0 setup on a primo and if yes what firmware & switches are you using? Thanks - oz

My setup is Primo -> 8 way diseqc 1.1 -> 4 way diseqc 1.0
Best branded (I think, the label has been sun bleached for years) 1.1 switch:
Port 1 -> diseqc 1.0 switch
Port 2 -> 22w
Port 3 -> 5w
Port 8 -> polar mount 1.2m
Technomate 1.0 switch:
Port A -> 28.2e
Port B -> 19.2e
Port C -> 52e
I'm having trouble switching to the dishes on the 1.0 switch. On the primo setting 28.2e to diseqc 1.0 port A + diseqc 1.1 port 1 works. I can switch to it from any other position. However when I set 19.2e to port B + port 1 I get no signal. Same happens for 52e using port C + port 1.
If I set diseqc 1.1 to off for 19.2e and 52e I can switch to (and between) them - but only if I switch to 28.2e first. Switching to 19.2e or 52e from 22w, 5w or the 1.2m results in no signal as expected.
The setup works 100% fine on my older receivers and my meter. The usb on my primo is dodgy so I'm not keen on updating the firmware but I'll give it a go if it'll fix the switching. Does anybody have a fully working setup and if so what firmware and switches are you using?
Thanks - oz
