DPP44 switch question

[levibluewa]

Does it matter which sat is fed into inputs 1-4 ? Should a particular sat be input #1, ex. 119, etc.

Normally it would be 119,110,129,118. It really doesnt matter for the first 3 but 118 should be on port 4 if you are using it.

119/110/129/118.7 or 77/72.7/61.5/118.7 is what I "prefer" but as previously stated the only one that really matters is that the FSS 118.7 be on port 4.

Tech told me if hooking to lnb with built in switch, then yes to disable built in switch. Not sure if true or not.

The DPP44 automatically disables the LNB's built-in switch.

From my experiece as a tech years back. Never stack a dpp lnb with a dpp44. Cant tell you how many tc's I rolled on for no signal because of that.

I've had a DPP 1k.2 hooked to a DPP44 + DPP33 in tandem for two years now with no issues.

Yea I had a brain fart, it wasnt a dpp44 I was changing out. It was when we converted from the 121 super dish to the dpp 500 lnb. Techs were just leaving the dp34 swith in with the dpp lnb. Thats when the 34 would cut signal.

Mine is 77, 119, 110, 129 and it works fine.
