- Zinewell 6x8 can do the job no external power required
- SW-64 is just good for 3 sats & 4 receivers but it requires seperate external power source so annoying if yo don't have a near by P/S
- DP34 is OK however it will need a 1000mA current 20Watt receivers only DN go that high none of the FTA receivers can do
Many people attach an old unused DN receiver to generate that 1-Amp Current

FTA is one thing pay service is another
But I would pick the 6x8 switch as a better choice

This is the easist way for 2 satellites to 4 receivers
Switch under $20 on e-bay

Upload

Yo can use 3 satellites like this
Sat-1 will be available on all receivers
Vertical polarity only from Sat-2
Horizontal polarity from Sat-3


Upload

If yor more advanced installer yo can add 2 more 22k switch and combine the other 2 polarities

This is 5 satellites on one receiver

Upload

This is 8 satellites on one receivers

King Tapeman you say that Vertical polarity only from Sat-2
The drawing of the Zinwell 4x4 Multi Switch shows Sat-2 connected to the 18 volt port. 18 volts is for horizontal polarity, and 13 volts for vertical polarity. Please correct your post.

African DP34 won't work without a 1000mA power source (1Amp)
He must attach a seperate receiver to generate enough current

Like I said above Zinewell 6x8 will be yor best option plug and play type of switch
When yo share multiple satellites on a switch designed for 2 satellites one polarity will over-ride the other
Usually is 18V parallel with 13v will produce 18V so as yo change thru the channels polarity struggle will take place as all recivers on at the same time

The wiring I got here will improve sharing but maping the 22k on all 4 receivers will be a challenge for any one with no electroncs background

So save yorself a headache or try to understand this maping:
Now this is just an idea
Improvement can be made cuz this is an improvised sketch that I just came up with for non-motorized fixed satellites

It sounds like a bin issue not a switch

Yor problem requires factory default and rescan channels
This has nothing to do with either type of switch
The right thing to do is create a new thread list yor hardware and I will help yo
