Hooking up 5 lnbs

[mnflyer]

I want to hook up 5 lnbs in and one line out to receiver ....3 on a Super dish and 2 on a 500
Is there a way to stack DP34 switches to do this or a DP34 and a 4X1 etc ?
If there is info on this that I could not find in my searches then point me there.
Thanks

Probably the best way is to "stack"...or more appropriately worded, cascade...a DPP44 with a DP21 following it.

Thanks for the reply
And how would one hook this up to the 5 lnbs?

I have found out that the DP34 is not compatable with the 500 so I guess it can'tn be done

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To the OP, why do you want to hook a SuperDish and a 500 dish up. It would seem you would be duplicating satellites since the Super is intended to view 119/110 and 105 or 121 and the 500 is for 119 and 110. We also need to know what model of receivers you are connecting.

Four LNBFs into the DPP44.

Output from DPP44 to left side of DP21, 5th LNBF to right side of DP21.

DP21 out to receiver.

Power inserter must go directly to DPP44 port 1 (not with DP21 in the way)

Theoretically this could be overcome by connecting the DP21 downstream of the power inserter if a person wanted to gain 5 lnbs at all 4 ports of the DPP44.
