VIP 211 & 4 Satellite Locations

[OneBigJedi]

Does anyone know if the new 211 will recieve 4 satellite localions. My 811 will only recieve 3 different locations (110, 119, & 61.5 our my 3 choices) at one time. With the new Dish 1000 getting 110, 119, & 129 if I add my 61.5 dish to the switch that will be 4 satellite locations. Is this a problem for the new 211?

I think all current Dish receivers will handle 4 satellite locations. Right now I have a 508, 625, and 6000 all receiving 61.5/110/119/129 with no problems. Recently my old 4900 was also able to receive these four. You just have to make sure your software is current and you mark the correct settings when you do a check switch. I do not have an 811, but I am certain that it and the 211/411/622 will handle four if set up properly.

I have a 411 (211 without the ethernet port) with a dish 1000 and 500 and a DPP44 switch. It does handle 4 satellite locations. I currently have 61.5; 110; 119; and 129. I also have the option of 121 or 105 if I had a Superdish and 148 if my dish was pointed the other way.

Just for the record the 811 will receive 4 (actually 5) locations like all the other current receivers.
