Ok, I'm wondering which input sat ports I should connect the following 3 satellites to on a DPP44 switch: 72.7, 129, & 118.7.

The DPP44 says it recommends 118.7 be connected to sat 4 input; so should I leave sat 3 input empty? Do DPP44's work with only 3 sats connected?

I know this isn't the typical 1000+ setup, but I'm going to be out of 119, 110, & 61.5 conus signal (north of the border) for the next couple months during the summer!

Thanks!

Yes. The 118 should be in the 4th port, ideally. You can leave the 3rd port empty. It will just a take a bit longer on the check switch test and you will see an X in the matrix for the 3rd port. It will work perfectly fine.
 
Awesome! Thanks for the quick reply.:) I assume the first 3 ports allow you to hook up the remaining satellites (other than 118) in any order to any other satellites. Cool!
