the only thing is 99% of the 22k switches out there will not pass diseqc commands. So if the 22k is first it wont work.

Iceberg is correct.

The Ecoda brand of 22K switches is one of the few that will pass diseqc commands.

I am currently using one now and it does work.

I was gonna question that as well. I tried to 22 Khz thingy but like Ice said, my 22 khz switch won't pass Diseqc commands.

And they didn't show the easy way to use 22k switches (any brand) to expand your # of connections - which is to connect a 22k switch to each of the diseqc inputs and hook an lnbf to both legs of the 22k switch.
