Dish Pro Plus 64 Switch

You don't need photoshop for that, see the way we do it in Europe

Wow I would love one of those.

Looks like Iceberg's and PSB's ultimate wet dream....

nah. If there were more satellites with alot of programming on it, then maybe.

Motorized and a couple fixed dishes work fine for me

Rode, I counted 14 LNBFs in your (?) arc - are they really so many satellites in mid-Europe ? I recal only Hotbird and couple Astras. Could you please name each of the 14 sats ?

Personally, I would think that a DPP46 would be of more value; 4 inputs; 6 outputs.

Now, if Dish would get wise and allow for an antenna input with integrated diplexors it would be even better. 3rd party switches from a number of vendors are available for DirecTV that allow this.

Sorry, I'm in a ranting mood this AM.

Cheers,

Although quite expensive, you can cascade the dpp44's to have more outputs from the same 4 inputs.

Those diplexors no longer work with the new directv dish (with 5 LNBs) since they are using the same frequency range as UHF for one of the LNBs. I guess they REALLY want you to sign up for their HD Locals package eh?

I know you can cascade DPP44s; but I beleive that even those with a need to do so would prefer a single switch solution.

I'll check DPP44 manual, but 30' if not 100' total allowed for the trunk of 3 max.

EDIT. Thanks for correction notice.

I'll check DPP44 manual, but 30" if not 100" total allowed for the trunk of 3 max.

Wow, 2.5 to 8.33 feet?

I think you meant 30' and 100'

Cheers,

Tell ya what, John, I'll build a DPP46 for you.

It's going to cost you $350 plus shipping.

Ah heck - tell ya what, I'll throw in 2 extra output ports for free!

SS:

That's ok, I can cobble together a cascaded switch solution myself

Cheers,
