Hello.
I have an install question. I going to upgrade my dish system to a newer receiver to go along with the one I currently have. I have a 508 dvr and am going to take a 4900 out of service and add either a 942 or a 622. I am not going to get dish's HD package I receive local hd's in an off air antenna. I have a dish 500 antenna with the internal switch box in the Dual lnb head. So I only have 2 inputs comming into the house now. Which switch box do I need to split the second input 2 both of my receivers the newer one needs 2 inputs along with the 1 to my 508. Also any one know where I can get a 942 receiver They seem to be very scarce. The 622 everone and their brother has. In the long run I can purchase a receiver and save on the monthly lease charge. I've had both of these receivers for 5 years or so.

Thnaks in advance for the info.
 
You can use a DP34 or DPP44 switch.

You will have to buy the receivers because Dish will require the HD package with the 622.


If DishStore.net doesn't have a 942 you might try DishDepot.com or Ebay.
