DPP44 Switch with a 1000.2 dish

Hi. I am tying to install a DPP44 switch with my 1000.2 dish. The install is as follows. The dish on the roof, cables from the dish to a hub room, from the hub room to three receivers. I am now adding a 4th receiver so need to install the dpp44 switch. I know that the 1000.2 has a built in switch, though I was told that the dpp44 switch will overside this when I install it. Is there a way for me to install the dpp44 switch in the hub room without going on the roof and disconnecting the built in switch? I am not sure of the LNBF for wach of the three lines is direct or not. If so, how do I tell which is for which sat.

Thanks for the help, hope this makse sense.

Hi. thanks... I do have three lines (actually 4 as I put one extra in just in case) that is coming from the dish. Will I need to do anything at the dish or can I just take the lines that are now going to each of the three receivers and put them into the DPP44 switch? thank!!

Nope. Nothing special. However, when you put them into the switch, and run your checkswitch, you will notice the order in which the locations show up. The system will be more reliable, if the order is 119, 110, 129. When you see what order they're in, note them, and label the leads, then put them in the proper order on the switch. Then re-run your check switch, of course.

that is great...I was worried that I needed to do something with the built in switch at the dish...and of course, the dish people were no help. When I hook up the receivers, I have three new receivers and an old PVR. should that go into a specific port on the switch. anything else I should be aware of so I do not muck this up...:) thanks again!

Just make sure the line with the power inserter goes to port 1.

Brutal review of Netflix's series Below

Don't know if any of you have watched this series yet, it would be interesting to see if you feel this review was accurate. It was very humorous to listen to however.

If the review is like the article, oi! Eighteen paragraphs into the review and... all they've done is not really talk at all about the actual thing they are reviewing.

Halfway into the "written" review, I know more about how the writer "thinks" than I do about what they are writing about. I understand their politics, their self-overestimated understanding of film, their inability to be funny.

Takes about 22 paragraphs to get to one that starts "Anyway, the story kicks off...". Talk about Slop! 😂

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy - Paramount+

Season 2 order already in hand:

'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1

I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

Here i am over a year later and just finished season 1. Not great but not as bad as I was expecting. Did not care for the barefoot captain stuff but overall ok. Actually looking forward to see what they did for season 2.

Yeah, the foot stuff was just nasty. I kept thinking of how dirty her feet would get traipsing around shoe-less. Funny, I love being shoe less at home and never wear shoes indoors in my home for long, but seeing her laying on all her furniture with her bare feet hanging out just kind of grossed me out.

There would still be dirt ,dust in the future I am sure. So walking around the station like she did she would get stuff on her feet. I am sure the robot vacuum is still going to miss stuff, with all those different alien species running around there.

Where is it going to come from -- specifically?

Why do you think cleaning technology won't improve in the next few hundred years? HEPA filtration was invented as part of the Manhattan Project.

I don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that. ;)

Say, I don't wear socks or shoes in my house either. But for a captain in Star Fleet it looks bad to be walking around the academy with no shoes. Gives off 1960 Hippie vibes.

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....
