Has anyone ever tried this???

[Alvn8r]

I've been looking around for a project and came across this. I tried it but can't get it to work. Eventually I'd like to try to get 5 sats on one reciever.

yes it works, but for 5 sats you should start with a dpp44 instead of the dp34

 

[volkodav]

yes, it works but not with 211 receiver. i did it with 942, 625, 622 i tried both DP 34 with DP 21 and also tried DPP 44 and DP 21 it worked for me

volkodav, do you have screenshot of 211 with switch matrix for 5 sats ?

DP34 = 3 sats max
DP34+DP21 = 4 sats max
DPP44 = 4 sats max
DPP44+DP21 = 5 sats max

Welcome Zipo.

What kinda codes are you looking for?

Thanks for all the help folks. Is there anythink note-worthy on the 105 deg sat? i was just planning to do 61.5, 110, 119, 121, 129 but im sort od curious about 105. I have an old 105 Superdish, should I give that a try?

Looks like just locals.

I have a superdish with a dp34 switch in which I connected the 110 and 119 sats to and on the 3rd port I have a sw21 with a wingdishs pointed at 61.5 and 129 going into the sw21. works great.

Maybe the 211 does not have the software in it to support 5 slots yet.

Look like a mess - I would like to see your picture of Switch matrix screen !

I assume that should be "DP21" not "SW21" - might work with only one tuner but very doubtful as to its stability. There is no possible way you could have more than one tuner, what do you think the DP21 would do if one tuner wants 61.5 and the other wants 129?
