hooking up a 625 and a 510 receiver

[catonite]

I have a 625 dual tuner and a 510 that I am trying to hook up. I have a dish pro quad lnb dish and 2 cables running into the house. How can I hook up all three receivers on these two lines. I wondered what my options were. I read that a DPP44 switch and a separator would allow me to run the 625 off one line. Is this true or is there something else that I am not aware of that I will need? Thanks for the info and help.

With your DishPro Quad , I can think of two good options, listed in order of cost:

1) run a third cable; the quad has four connections available.
2) hook up a DP34 switch to the two incoming lines; up to four receivers can connect to the DP34 outputs
(and that can be extended to 8 or 12 if necessary)

Check the cost of a DPP44 switch before you consider any plan which uses one.

3) replace the DP Quad with a DPP Twin, use a DPP Separator that may have come with the 625. No need to run another line, easy to add a 3rd satellite, limited to 2 receivers.
