Is 61.5 an FSS ?

[aramd]

Setting up a 77, 72, 61.5 LNB. Does 61.5 go into FSS on a 4x4 multi-switch, or just leave that input empty?

I'm not sure what multiswitch you're talking about, but those sats are DBS, not FSS.

Is that 4x4 a DirecTV multiswitch ?

 

[Mr Tony]

yes...also used in free to air applications for LEGAL FTA (not STEALING)

So it's probably Diseqc. Pretty sure that's not Dish Pro Plus so it probably won't work with a 77,72,61.5 LNB like the OP asked.

My DP34 was a diseqc switch...

My DP34 was a diseqc switch...

And thus not Dish Pro Plus...

And thus not Dish Pro Plus...

What is that supposed to mean? A DPP33 or 44 is definitely not diseqc?

A "multi-switch" is not a DiSEqC switch. They use 22khz tone for switching. The DP34 and DPP44 work with DiSEqC 1.0 and I have used both that way. If the OP does have a 4x4 multi-switch, then it can only receive two locations, not three. You need both H and V polarities output from two sats for the 4 inputs on the 4x4 multi-switch.
