    Can SW31 be used to connect 2 receivers to 1 output?

    Okay, I see what it is now. It separates a UHF/VHF feed in combo w/ a diplexer.

    Can SW31 be used to connect 2 receivers to 1 output?

    Yes, that would be easier, thank you so much. I sometimes don't understand things if I don't see them, so this helps a lot! Also, I have triplexer... what can that be used for? I know obviously the two tuners, but what would be the point in having a 3rd port on it?

    Can SW31 be used to connect 2 receivers to 1 output?

    Oh okay, I see. I think I will still try my luck w/ what I have, if I run into problems I guess I'll fork out the cash for a switch. I still don't completely understand how you explained this setup. Just for clarification, I have two Duos, and two solos. Would I then need 3 duplexer...

    SUCCESS! What a pain the new receivers are to use. They have about a two second delay & refresh rate. Thanks for the help!

    Can SW31 be used to connect 2 receivers to 1 output?

    Sorry guys, I actually had an error when posting this message, so I clicked back and didn't realize it actually was posted. I got to thinking about it a little more and realize how far off I am... lol. They are listed out there as a SW31, but on the casing it says SW2-31 or maybe SW21 3-1...

    Can SW31 be used to connect 2 receivers to 1 output?

    Have a 1000.4 dish, 3 outputs. I have one duo on port 1, one duo on port 2, one solo on port 3, and have one other solo that needs hooked up. I have a SW31 laying around, can the switch be used in reverse? I don't want to buy an expensive switch to do this, any suggestions?

    Pointing w/VIP receiver, slow refresh rate causing my problems?

    Okay, just wanted someone to verify, I'm on the verge of losing my mind trying to find 61.5. I'll go w/ the azimuth & elevation setting 1st, then use the receiver to fine tune, I just didn't want to fork out $20+ for a finder to only be used once. Thank you.

    Pointing w/VIP receiver, slow refresh rate causing my problems?

    After trying to aim 61.5 w/ a VIP211 for a couple days and getting very finnikey signals, I think I know why, but could someone verify? I am used to using my old DP301, and just grabbing the dish and fanning it up & down in the general are untill I see a little blip on the signal bar, then...

    Strange checkswitch setup problems, please help.

    That would be awesome if that was all it was, however it's not. I took my working VIP722k out and directly swapped in the 211 to test, and no go. Also setup a completely separate 500 dish and tried, same thing.

    Strange checkswitch setup problems, please help.

    Well, talked to a tech & came to the conclusion that the box is defective. Guess I will have to try to get the seller to swap it for another unit or get a refund, this stinks.

    Strange checkswitch setup problems, please help.

    Receiver is a VIP211, when doing a checkswitch, I get something along these lines... below images are using Legacy LNB's on 110, 119, Diseqc switch. Originally for troubleshooting, I swapped out my living room receiver for the new receiver to test, this was on my new eastern arc 1000.4...

    Best way to handle technican?

    I had the same situation, I'm a new dish customer and had ordered my 3rd receiver. They wouldn't ship it either, had to have the tech come out & install it. I have a matrix of audio/video going on from the crawlspace up into the attic and everywhere inbetween & didn't want to have to deal w/...

    setup problems, can't find 61.5

    Yeah, I didn't even try for 72 & 77. I guess my main hurdle I need straightened out is picking up 61.5....... Why can't I find a signal using a single Legacy w/ dish 500 & DP301 receiver? I spent almost an hour trying to find 61.5 and all I could find was 110, 119, & 91. BTW I know you...
