can my rooftop dish be shared with other condo units?

[the_beaver]

I live in a condominium, have a
dish installed on the roof and have
a 721 receiver. Since the 721 draws
in two signals can my dish be shared
with other condo owners who want to
go with DISH NETWORK? :scratch:

Sure, as long as you each have a seperate account all is legal. The only limit is the # of cable outputs available. On my setup, I have a SW64 switch, of which 2 are not used. How many open connections do you have?

thanks for the help!
gosh...i have noooo idea---
but i am sure that the dish
was installed for just one
TV...
does that info help???

If it was a recent install, most likely you have a DP twin at the dish. If you are using a 721, both ports are being used. To accomodate additional receivers, simply add a DP34 switch, which is cascadable to add more, that will feed the other units.

or switch the Dishpro lnb to 2 dual legacy lnbs, feed their outputs to 2-16 way multi switches and then combine that with SW21s and you can feed 16 dish boxes.

Sounds expensive, but the whole thing will cost less than $300.
