I own a 721 and want to add a second DVR with dual tuner capability. Dish has the 522 promotions right now and since I am moving next month the $99.00 install is not an issue for me. My question is it possible to have both the 522 and 721 installed into my new house with a DPP44 switch to avoid running 2 sets of wires to both receivers? And if so exactly how would I do this? I am assuming that when Dish comes to install the 522 they will not have a DPP44 switch but if I buy one they should have an LNBF that can work with this set up.
Can someone advise me if the DPP44 is the best way to do this and also what LNBF should be used?
I realize that I will need to by separators to split the signal at the receivers but can someone tell me if this set up would work? Assuming this configuration is the way to go, the only other upgrade I can envision in the next 24 months is the possible installation of a 301 receiver in a spare bedroom.
If there is a way to put together a configuration which would run 2 dual tuner DVRs and a 301 receiver please let me know. I would prefer to not buy equipment that is only going to solve my problems for a year if I can spend a little more and get a set up that works for everything I might do down the road.
Thanks
