4 Port disec switch.

[VE2FCZ]

I have a 4 port disec sw.
port 1= 75 E Shaw Direct dish with twin lnb using 22khz on 87W and 91W.
port 2-3-4- Fortec Star dish with 3 lnb's 97W 103W 107.3W
Is it possible to add another 75E Shaw Direct dish with twin lnb using another disec sw?

Thanks Bob....

You can't add another committed switch in series with that one.
You may want to grab you an 8X1, assuming your receiver will do DiSEqC 1.1.

You can put a diseqc 1.0/2.0 switch together with a diseqc 1.1/2.1 switch inline.

As long as at least two of your LNBs on 97, 103, and 107.3 are standards (not universals) then you could get a 22KHz switch to double up two of them on one port, thereby freeing up a port for the new 75e.

Thanks guys i will get a 22khz switch.

Make sure you buy an Ecoda 22khz switch. Some 22khz switches won't work after the disque switch. Ecoda's will work before or after the disque switch. There may be some other brands that will work, but unconfirmed here.

Also the 22khz Ecoda passes power to both ports continuously no matter which port you select. So there will be additional power loading to consider.
