First off, get rid of the external switch, it's not needed, the DPP twin has an internal Diseqc switch.
Connect the second dish for 118 to the input on the DPP twin LNB, run 2 coaxes to your receivers directly from the DPP twin LNB's receivers outputs.
Looking at the LNB with the eye pointing at you, (LNB is off the dish) the 2 ports to the left are the receiver outputs, the port to the far right all by it's self is the external LNB input.
Switching is as follows:
119 = Diseqc #1
110 = Diseqc #2
118 = Diseqc #3
Thank you so much, Terryl. You made my day! It sounds so simple and I'm anxious to try it. In fact, I'm already ordering a second receiver, which should arrive soon.
Just a follow-up question, and I hope I'm not hijacking the thread. I plan to add a 36" DTV36EDS dish to catch the 97W sat. How would I hook it up to two receivers along with what I already have, which are 110/119 sats on a twin DPP+ lnb and 118 sat on a standard lnb. I'm hoping I wouldn't have to change any of the existing lnb's. Thanks again for all your help.
