Adding a third receiver

[amoda1]

I have a question. I have Dish 500 with 2 LNB’s single output each and one dish 300 for international channels (single LNB with two outputs). My dish 500 LNB’s have switch 21X built in.

I am using dish 500 two outputs to two different switches 21 and combing each output from dish300 to get programming from all 3 satellites. This configuration is good for two receives.

I would like to add a third receives. Can someone please guide me on how to alter the current configuration so that I can add one more receiver or I need to buy additional hardware like SW-64? Any info would be nice. Current receives are Legacy 3700 & DP301. The additional receiver will also be 3700.

Sounds like you need a SW64.

Also sounds like your Dish 500 has a legacy Twin. To use an SW64 the Dish 500 must have 2 Dual LNBs (like the one on your Dish 300) or a legacy Quad.
