4x4 multiswitch + 2x4, can I get 6 sat feeds?

[meterman87]

I just got a 18x24 elliptical dish, which came with a Channel Master 4x4 multiswitch. I already own a Channel Master 2x4 multiswitch.

Can I use two outputs from the 4x4 and go into the two inputs on the 2x4 so i can have a total of 6 sat feeds. two sat feeds to two IRDs from the 4x4 and 4 sat feeds to three IDRs (two RCA 420's and a DirecTivo, which needs two sat feeds).

Thanks,

meterman

the standard 2x4 will only pass the 101 sat signals not the 119 sat.

The best way to go to get both 101 and 119 sat for more 4 receivers is get a Terk 58.

thanks, since I got the dish for free I was just seeing if there was a way to add more than 4 ird's without buying any aditional hardware.

Looks like I can, thanks for all the replies.
