New member Username: Saru4uPost Number: 5 Registered: Oct-06 | Hi I have 2 dish's both dish 500. One pointing towards 110 & 119, second towards 61.5. My question is if I get a DP34 switch with a twin lnb for 110 & 119 and dual lnb for 61.5, would I be able to put a DP21 switch on the dual lnb since I can only lead 3 wires to the DP34 switch. If not can you tell me where to find a Dishpro Single Lnb? or what to do with the second wire from the dual lnb? |

Silver Member Username: Cartier1Post Number: 343 Registered: Feb-07 | if u are using dp34 you need one wire from each. from 110 one wire from 119 one wire from 61.5 one wire all to dp34 . from dp34 you can run 4 cable to 4 receiver . noway you can run only one cable from the 110/119 lnb's period. ( only if u run stright cable from the lnb to the receiver or u use sw21 switch . ) but if u are using any other switch you have to run both cable from 119side and from 110 sides. |

So look at the diagram Nalin posted in that link. That's what you need to do. Oh, Cartier is right, you have to run both cables from the Twin LNB into inputs 1 & 2 of the DP34 switch. |

Silver Member Username: TapemanNew York, NY Post Number: 832 Registered: Oct-06 | Joe was saying "if i get" Also I was refering to DISEqC switch as a simple option Didn't mention anything about receiver brand or how many. If he doesn't have dp34 yet chances were he was given wrong advice But it all depends on how many receiver he wants |
