I have tested a "super dish" using an 18" dish and 3 LNB's. I get signals from DTV 101', Dish 119', and Dish 110'. My problem is that I have one single LNB and two doubles.
My problem is I want to run two DTV IRD's off of 101' using one of the dual LNB's. I also want to run two Dish IRD's using the one single LNB at say 119' and the dual at 110'. Can I use a Regal SMS-4 3X4 multiswitch to split the two satellite feeds?
The SMS-4 has a LHCP 13V in, a RHCP 18V in, and a VHF/UHF 40-860 MHZ in. It has a line down the middle clearly dividing the LHCP side and RCVR 1 and 2 from the RHCP side and RCVR 3 and 4. Could I put 110' on one side and 119' on the other or is the division of sides just for looks? I have a couple of SW-21's to combine the signal again.
I know another dual LNB would solve my problem, but I have this multi-switch lying around anyway. I also would test it, but these Dish IRD's seem to take forever to get anywhere with. It took me all night to set up the dish with one IRD.
