I am switching from a Dish 211 receiver to a 622. The 622 has two sat inputs on the back . I want to get PIP but how do I split the signal of the coaxial sat input I had on the 211 to the two inputs on the 622? I am currently connected to 61.5, 110 and 119 sats via a sw213sat. A regular cable splitter will not work as the 622 will not recognize sats on input 2. Thanks

There is a splitter that Dish installs when they put in the 622 that converts from one line from the switch to the two inputs. Dish puts in a DDP34 or DDP44 switch when they install this. So you may need to replace the switch. I previously had a SW64 that Dish replaced. When they installed my DDP44 they also replaced the LNBs on my dish 300 in addition to installing a new dish 1000. So as you can see there is a whole bunch of stuff that needs to all be compatable. If you do not let Dish do the install you need to understand all the issues.
