Diseqc Switch, do I need one?

[Shak1980]

I just bought a SonicView Elite, I haven't recieved it yet but I was just wondering about my installation. Right now I am using two DNDNDNDNDNDNDNwork receiver. I have two satellites, one is Single LNB Dish Pro Dual for 61.5 and another one is Dish Pro Plus Dual Lnb for 110 and 119. I got one cable from 61.5 going to the Dish Pro Plus Dual Lnb and from Dish Pro Plus Dual I got two cables going inside my house for my two DNDNDNDNDNDNDNwork receivers. Now I want to use these two cables for my two tuner SonicView. Do I need a Diseqc switch? How would my installation look? I am new to this, help please.

If you plan on using the 2 DN Sub receivers along with the SV Elite, the a DP34 Switch should be all that you will need.

Connect both cables from the DPLUS to the 2 inputs of the DP34 Switch and you would then have 4 Outputs, 2 for the DN Subs and 2 Outputs for the SV Elite.

I think that should work just fine for you.

Will work with any two receivers. In you anntena setup have to change the diseqc to 119-1, 110-2, 61.5-3. and you wach TV. Good luck.

I am only gonna use the SV Elite. I am not gonna use the DN receivers.

Than use one cable down to receiver frome any ports 1 or 2 but you have to use the anntena set up i give you. Ok? Good luck.

Yes, you would have full 2 tuner capability while recieving 61.5, 110, and 119.
The DPP is acting as the diseqc.
Please post back and let us know how it goes with this set-up.
Thanks
