Re: 1000.2 Stupid question

Also, Dont plug an extra DP lnb into the LNB in port unless you have at least two receivers connected to ports 1 and 2 or 3. The 1000.2 starts drawing 600ma's when the LNB port is used and your receiver can only supply 500ma max. You will need to use a DPP 44 switch if you want an extra sat. It has a power injector. Also the built in Diseq switch in the 1000.2 will disable itself when a 44sw is connected so you would have to connect ports 1,2 and 3 to the switch inputs 1,2 and 3. Then connect the extra DP LNB to the #4 input on the switch. Fun Fun Fun!!
If you only have one box and only want 119,110 and 129. Just plug directly into port 1 of the 1000.2 and you should be fine..
