Trial and error??? You only connect the cable once so your repeatedly disconnecting and reconnecting the cables for nothing, your not gonna find a short that way, especially it causing the recvr to shut off. A short in the satellite cable from the dish to the recvr will not cause the recvr shut...

Yeah, hook up a satellite signal meter and see if the LNB pulls in signal.. As far as the recvr not turning on, it should as long as its plugged in. The LNB actually gets its power from the recvr. So more than likely, the recvr is the problem...if it wont turn on, or stay on...its dead. -Freya1

DJ Rob. I stand corrected. You are right. I did'nt think you could cascade(stack) the switches together. But I guess you can. Thanks alot for your 10 cents. LOL. -Freya1

So no, the switch prolly is'nt bad. -Freya1

The quad has the switch built into it. You cannot run the output of the quad into the DP 34. You could combine the signals with a DP21 switch. You cant cascade a quad(built in switch) with a Dp34 switch. Just the feed from 61.5 is passing thru the 34. Becuz the feed from the quad already...
