I presently have a VIP622, VIP612 and a 508, all leased, so I am at my 4 tuner limit. I have a DPP 33 switch. I'd like to add another SD receiver that I plan on buying from the Dish Store. What do I need to do with the present switch to make this all work?
 
You could buy a DP34 switch and put it in ahead of the DPP33 (since it has passthrough ports). I operate such a configuration. Note that you have to have a receiver such as your 508 plugged into and powering the DP34 or else the DPP33 will get no signal.
