Is it possible to hook up three receivers to the outputs of two legacy single LNBs (aimed at 110 and 119)? I have old receivers that are not DP compatible. Is it possible with SW-21s and some other legacy switch?
Thanks.

nope. you would need an sw44 or 64 to hook the 3 rcvrs up - and this would have to be done with dual lnbs - legacy installs require two cables between the switch and lnb - one for odd and one for even polarity.

Single LNBs(not single sat with Dual outputs), or single sat LNBs with only 1 hookup can ONLY support 1 receiver. You would have to have dual LNBs and a switch or 2 to hook up to more that 1 receiver.

Ok, I didn't think so. Thanks.
