VIP722 and VIP222K

[Gaprofitt]

Can I run two dual tuner boxes off one dish? I'm fairly certain two cables come off the LNB and go to some sort of switcher in my crawlspace currently. I currently only have two TV's running off the VIP722 but would like to add a VIP222K to the bedroom to have two DVR's and HD on both TV's with dual tuner capability.

Thanks,

Greg

go to menu 6-1-3 on your 722 and tell us what switch box is detected

Shows DPP 1k.2, 1k.2(1), 1.k2(2) and 1k.2(3)

with that setup,you can actually run up to three dual tuners off of that one dish

Awesome

Great,

Do I just run direct from the LNB to the receivers or do I need seperators or switches?

Thanks,

should be an additional line from dish to ground block(if one was installed) then from ground block to seperator on back of receiver. then you just need to run the tv2 line from receiver to tv2 location switch is built in to LNB on dish
