Guys,
I have the setup of Dish Tru HD with monoblock LNB and also another Videocon D2H setup. I wanted to connect both dishes to a single STB. But since there is a monoblock LNB it was not possible to connect monoblock from Dish Tru HD and single LNB from D2H to the same STB through a DiSEqC switch.
I gone through several websites and found a way. I tried it and it is working :tup :tup
Here is the explanation about the method.
Get one splitter (5 - 2400 MHz) with power pass in all outputs.
Get one DiSEqC switch (4 into 1)
Take the output from monoblock LNB and connect to the splitter.
Connect one output of the splitter to LNB1 of the DiSEqC switch.
Connect another output of the splitter to LNB2 of the DiSEqC switch.
Connect another Dish (D2H) LNB out to LNB3 of the DiSEqC switch.
Connect the DiSEqC switch output to the set top box.
Select LNB1 for NSS6 satellite (for example)
Select LNB2 for Asiasat satellite (for example)
Select LNB3 for ST2 satellite (for example).
You are done.
Now enjoy 3 satellites in singe STB that too including a monoblock LNB.
I tried this inside my home itself since I already have two different wires from two Dishes (Dish Tru HD and Videocon). I took the video of the setup when I was trying inside my home.
Videos for your view: I hope this will help someone.
