okay so assuming his LNB is a DPP Twin, that means i can use a DPP44 switch and seperators?

Yes that is correct. Look at page 15 here:

okay im starting to understand....lol

one more thing i cant seem to find info about....

are there TWO DIFFERENT types of "twin" LNBs or just one?

i mean is there a "dish pro twin LNB" AND a "dish pro plus twin LNB"?? or are they the same? or different?

if they are different will they BOTH work with a DPP44 switch and seperators?

At least 3 kinds of twin.
Legacy, DP, and DPP.

DP and DPP can feed DPP-44 switch.

Only DPP can feed separator

The posted link to quad is very suspicious.

The picture looks altered. Showing "plus"

From desc. it's a legacy. As in post two.

Won't work with DPP 44 or separators.

Okay I think the mystery is solved then, this guy already has a seperator at one of his receivers, so that must mean he has a DPP, is that correct?
