Dp-21 Switch And Vip622

[grey13]

my 811's were coming off two dp-21's which are attached(tie wrapped) to the dish mounting post. those two switches are currently feeding the two inputs on the 622 and no separator is in use(which was shipped with the 622)
this link will show how there is also a link at this website to see how long cable lengths can be in any given situation

I also have the current setup on one 811 and also have a 301 .


I just received my 622 and plan on swapping it out for the 811. I have 110 ,119, and 61.5 .How exactly would I be able to run another line off of the dp-21 ?

Also is it normal for the the switch to be installed on the roof of a two story house directly next to the dish ?

You're going to need another DP-21, and make sure the 61.5 LNB is a dual output.

in an earlier post i stated that my attempt at backfeeding the 21-69 was not working. well i have corrected it. 2 conditions now currently exist. some channel are taking maybe 8 seconds or more to load? is this a switch issue? also there is some snow on tv2. is this signal loss?

for TV 2 check see if the diplexers hooked up right and a good clean connections.

condition 1
i should be more concise. all connections are clean at diplexer's. there is approximately 50 feet of cable from the diplexer to the dish. i thought maybe the length could cause some loss of signal.
condition2
i am attempting to backfeed(21-69) to 4 tv's and modulate both tv1 and tv2 out. tv2 modulates fairly well with snow increasing as it comes to the last tv. tv1 modulates in black and white. i think there are 5 splitters in all and approx 120ft of cable. probably need some amplification.

one other thing are splitters bi-directional. as in "can one be used to combine an ota signal with the (21-69) output?

otherwise everything is perfect
