Connect it to your 4x4 switch or add a diseqc between the sw21 and bev.

i can't connect it to my 4x4 because it uses the 2 feeds from the 110 and 119 and could i eliminate the sw 21 with a diseq switch or do i need that and how would i run the cable.
thanks

i have 4 hooked up to dish and 1 hooked up to the dish and bell thats the one i want the 129 on its the sonicview hd i just want to get the most out of it. the others i don't need hooked up well maybe 1 other to bell but if its too compicated there's no need.

Probably the cheapest way to go about it to add a diseqc switch between your bev lnb and the sw21 . You would connect bev and 129 to diseqc in ports - from diseqc to the bev in port that you are using at the present for bev.

Doesn't the sw21 combine dn and bev to 1 receiver ? If it does you would have 110, 119/8 , 129 and bev going to 1 receiver .

I am assuming you have Legacy/Standard LNBs? When you say Bev, do you mean 91 or 91&82?

Here is a 5LNB(119/118,110,91,82,129) to upto 4 receiver setup:

that will work but i only needed 4 sats 110,118/119,129,91 going to one receiver the other 3 receivers only needed the 110,118/119 setup. but i will work with that. thanks alot for all your help.

110, 118/119, 129 and 91 equals 5 sats, 118 and 119 are two different satellites at the same orbital location. (well .2 degrees apart)

In that case what I suggested in post 6 will work and is the simplest/cheapest solution .

Diseqc and SW21 will work for 5 Sats, if you want more add another Diseqc!
