    DP311 & SV360 LNBF Sharing

    I have seen where dish pro twin and dish pro dual lnb's have been connected to a dp34 and the outputs of the dp34 being connected to a dish receiver and an FTA receiver. Both work perfectly.

    What switch do i need?

    Well I did it. I picked up the dp twin and dp dual and swapped the legacy lnbs out. I used the dp34 switch that I had and it worked all fine. one question.... the dp 34 is in the family room for now because all 3 sat feeds were there already. Is this a problem? I did ground the dp34 switch...

    vip612: ir/ufh remote question

    I know the 612 comes with a remote capable of transmitting both IR and UHF. My question is... does the receiver actually respond to the UHF remote or do you need to have line of sight with the receiver? I have a TV in the kitchen but no space for the receiver, so I would like it in the next...

    Will DISH bend any on the additional rcvr charge?

    I doubt it. Especially if you are a new customer. If you go auto pay they may give you free cinnimax for a year.

    LNB -legacy to dp swapout

    I had previously purchased a 34 thinking it would work on legacy. I also found a guy that has the dp dual and dp twin for $30. I will also be running a 508 or fta in addition to the 211, that's why I am going to use the 34. Btw - the back of the 211 says it is dpp compatible. I am...

    LNB -legacy to dp swapout

    Okay, thanks. It sounds like physically replacing the LNB's is straight forward, I do not need a different adaptor at the end of the dish arm. Is this correct?

    Quick question.... I have a legacy twin and a legacy single lnb currently and I want to swap them out for a dp dual and a dp twin. Is this as simple as a straight swap or do I need some sort of adaptor because the legacy and the dp's aren't the same shape? The dp's will be run to a dp34...

    Okay, I am still getting conflicting responses even on this thread.:confused: Who has a working 211 receiver with legacy lnb's? Can someone show me where on the internet that shows that this will work? :eureka I prefer to go w/ legacy due to cost, but will pay for dish pros if I have...

    What switch do i need?

    Thanks for the reply, I am looking for the cheapest option as $$$ are scarce. I would do the two sw21's but that doesn't solve my issue with needing 61.5 and 1 of 110 and 119 to 2 receivers. Will the sw42 take the one coax from my 61.5 and 1 for 119 and 1 for 110 and output to two...

    What switch do i need?

    Okay, I climbed the ladder because I do not have a switch installed now. I do not believe they are dish pro's. the dish 300 has a digital lnbf 214-5100-400 and has nothing that is stamped DP. THE DISH 500 ALSO DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING STAMPED DP. THE ONLY STICKER ON IT SAID IT WAS A DIGITAL...
