Spaun multiswitch help

[oldavman]

I am installing a Spaun SMK55162 multiswitch w/Spaun SBK5503 Launch Amplifier for my Turbo HD dish and VIP222 receiver. I'm not getting a signal. (I am getting a signal from the dish straight to the receiver) Any suggestions.
Thanks.

That switch isn't DishPro or DishProPlus compatible, so it's pretty useless for your application.

What are you trying to accomplish?

I'm running to multiple receivers. What dish would work with the Spaun multiswitch I'm using.

Possibly legacy equipment would work with it, but I doubt you'll get a receiver to see it. There is no reason to even use it with your 1000.2 (or .4) and the VIP222. The LNB's provided with those dishes are capable of running three dual tuner receivers straight off the LNB. If you need more than the three the LNB is capable of running itselt then you need to get a Dish Pro Plus 44 switch. You can connect up to three of them off of the dish to provide signal up to 12 dual tuner receivers.

Let me explain further. I'm using the two cascadable 16-out Spaun multiswitches for 26 receivers in a lodge room setup.

Each room in the lodge can select either Odd or Even Transponders on a SINGLE sat location using your multiswitch. If you are depending on the room to generate some 22Khz tone to select a different Sat location (DirecTV), you aren't going to get that from a DISH receiver. Do you only want core programming from 119º and have two feeds from the multiswitch to each room so that both tuners in the 222 are fed from legacy LNBs? If you want to feed both tuners of the DISH receiver from a single feed, the other end of the feed has to be a DISH Pro Plus switch, not your Spaun.

Got it working.
Thanks for your help.
