Can I add another receiver?

[cruzmisl]

Hi All,
I have a 622, 625 and a 211. All are only hooked up to single TV's but I want to upgrade the 622 to a 722 and move the 622 to my bar. Will they allow me to do that? Is there a maximum number of receivers one can add to an account? All the TV's I have are HD and I hate SD signal on HDTV's.
Thanks,
Joe

Maximum of six receivers on account, maximum of four leased tuners, anything over this you need to buy.

As long as we're on the subject, can you add more than two receivers in a house with just the one dish or do you need to add another dish?

You can trunk up to 3 DP34s or DPP44s together for a maximum of 12 receivers off one dish. Not sure if you could go above that with a quad...

Edit: According to this post, a DP quad can feed two chains of switches. So, you should be able to support 24 receivers from trunked switches from one dish. That's 48 independent tuners in the case of 3 trunked DP44s on each chain.

The Dish 1000.2 and 1000.4 have outputs for 3 receivers. Any more and you need to add an external switch(es). See EKB: Switch Selection
