Multiple sat hookup

[aquavettes]

Hi all. New to site and need some info. How and what equipment do I need to connect satillites 110,119,105. and 64.5 to two recievers. The installed dishes are (1) super dish for the 110.119,&105. (2) a dish 500 for the 105. I currently am using the switch installed by the retailer with the 105 disconnected and the 61.5 in its place. I would like to be able to get all four sat's connected to my 6000hd & 625 pvr receivers. Thanks for any information.

You want 119, 110, 105 and 61.5.

Right now, you have 119, 110, 61.5 connected to a DP34 switch, correct? You will need a DPP44 switch to connect all 4 satellites.

What programing are you tring to get off the 61.5?

voom channels

Will a 6000hd and a 625dvr both work with the DPP44?

 

[Mr Tony]

yes it will

Please tell us how you get the 105 with a DISH 500 that requires a Super Dish.

He just made a mistake, I think he meant 61.5 on a Dish500.

Correct I use the 500 for 61.5 sat. Also does the dpp44 swithch care whether I use both pro lnbf's and legacy lnbf's. The Super dish uses Pro and the dish 500 has legacy lnb's. What about coax? I have both ,the older on the 500 and the newer coax on the super dish. Thanks again

 

[RandallA]

All LNBs have to be DP Pro, no mixing with Legacy lnbs. Regarding the coax, as long as the old run is RG6 rated to 2250 Mhz you will be OK.

 

[aquavettes]

If I am reading this right; I will need a DPP44 and make sure all lnb's are Pro lnb's. Everything else I have in the system should work fine?

 

[RandallA]

That's correct. The DPP44 is an expensive switch so you may want to shop around.

 

[aquavettes]

Thanks for all the help. So far the only place I have located a DPP44 in on ebay.

You can try dishstore.net or dishdepot.com also.

 

[aquavettes]

OK! Next question. How does the dish pro twin work? Does it do the switching from the 110 &119 & LNB in all internally?

 

[aquavettes]

Thanks for all the help!!! Just ordered the DPP44 switch.
