Well currently I have 2 322 (They are base two tuner receivers). I bought a 522 off ebay about 3 months ago.... I currently have it hooked up in substitution of one of the 322's but I would like to get them all hooked up at once.
I have a quad line coming from the Dish now and the last time I talked to someone at dishnetwork they said I would need a dp34 switch which I also bought on Ebay bought two actually... Anyway it still doesn't seem clear to me what I need to do?
Does anyone have any suggestions.... Thanks

take just 2 off the quads output feed to the dp34 and feed the outputs to 2 dua tuner boxes

We are assuming that your Quad is DishPro. It will NOT work with the DP34 otherwise.

Note that you should use an odd and an even port of the Quad. That is, both feeds from one leg (1/2 or 3/4), the outer two (1/4), or the inner two (2/3).

Run the odd numbered feed to input #1 of the DP34. It will become the 119 feed, as is expected by all the different boxes.

You can use the other two Quad outputs to drive the third box. This leaves you with a spare DP34. OR, cascade the two DP34's, and, if you want, trade out the Quad for a Twin. Using both DP34's gives you full capability for a third bird if ever needed.

Thanks much I believe that'll do the trick.
