I've done a descent amount of research on the following issue yet the more I research the more confused I get, am hoping that someone here will be able to help me out. While I also realize that there are many very similar questions that have been posted in these forums I've yet to find one with my specs. For starters I have an AT9 dish with 3 lnb's: WNC- FW9 & FW2 on the sidecar with four output cables coming directly out of the dish/lnb arm. As of now I have 2 HD DVR's and one SD Tivo DVR, only one of the DVRs is hooked up utilizing it's dual tuner. What I'd like to do is utilize the dual tuners in all 3 DVRs meaning I would need a total of 6 output lines, this is where the confusion has come into play- I've read in some forums that the 3 lnb setups all have a built in multiswitch and that to get more than 4 lines out I would either for one be SOL or I could use a cascading multiswitch? I've also read some that claim a regular multiswitch will work and others say that not even a cascading multiswitch will work, although none of what I've read has been in relation to my exact setup (if that makes much difference?) Any insight into exactly what I would need to do to accomplish this: running 2 HD dual tuner receivers and one SD dual tuner receiver or getting a total of 6 lines out and into the house with my setup would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time and help, J. Clarke
