Remove the wire going into the switch at the location marked 101 Even and swap it with the one that is marked 101 odd. Run your test again. If the odds are gone this time, then the problem is either the LNB or the wire coming from it. If the problem still stays the same then the switch is having a problem and needs replacement.
If you find that swapping the wires moves the problem over to the odds, then swap those same two wires at the LNB. Do the test again. If it reverts back to the evens failing, then the LNB is bad and needs replacement. However, if the problem again moves to the odds, then the wire is the culprit and needs replacement.
Check the connectors when doing each step of this procedure. Make sure that there is no aluminum braids in contact with the center conductor. If there are, try a pair of needle-nose pliers to remove. If that isn't successful, then the connector needs to be replaced also. Continue the above troubleshooting procedure to ensure no other problem exists.
