I am using two separate LNB for 119 110 on same dish, 2nd dish pointing to 118.
All birds going to diseqc to one Receiver.
I come across this Dish pro Plus. with integrated switch inside.
Before I go to screw up the pointing, please tell me if this model compatible with FTA, such as SV, nF etc.
What I understand, I just connect my receiver onto either Port 1 or Port 2, then 118 will be connected to LNB IN.
The diseqc will be discarded.

Thank you in advance

Some FTA receivers have problems powering that lnb when the lnb port in is used.

Also, to use the "in-port" on a Dishpro Plus the 118 LNB would have to be a Dishpro LNB as-well.

It takes 700 mili amps to power that DPplus with another lnb hooked to the in port. On the back of your receiver where the lnb in is it will tell you how many mili amps the receiver provides to the switch.
