Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Eagle Aspen DTV3X4 "Min Max" multiswitch is ideal for DirecTV subscribers who want to expand their satellite viewing options without installing a sophisticated multi-satellite system. The compact unit, which features a high-quality, low-profile die-cast case, connects a single satellite dish to as many as four satellite receivers, letting you enjoy satellite programming in both main bedrooms in addition to the living room and kitchen. Users can also connect cable and antenna feeds to the switch to receive both local and satellite programming without running several cables to each TV. Another convenient feature is the lack of a power adapter--the multiswitch is powered by the receivers themselves--so users don't need to find an external power source to use it. Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, the DirecTV-approved device is compatible with all 18-inch round satellite dish antennas with dual LNB inputs.

Product Description

The DIRECTV approved Eagle Aspen 3 x 4 multi-switch will allow you to expand your single satellite service up to 4 receivers. Enjoy your DIRECTV programming and combine your off-antenna or cable feed to one cable to 4 rooms using this Eagle Aspen multi-switch.

This multiswitch allowed me not to have to put a second dish. If you use the switch make sure you reset all the recievers connected to the multiswitch. Unplug reciever wait a couple minutes plug back up and turn back on.

This review is from: Eagle Aspen DTV3X4 DirecTV-Approved "Min Max" 3-In/4-Out Multiswitch (Electronics)

I ordered this product as a replacement for the one that was initally installed by Direct TV. During a lightening storm a bolt was a near-miss (it hit a tree located about 20 feet from our satelite dish) however my Direct TV became screwy - I would receive some channels and not others. When I checked my satelite strength I saw that I was getting a signal on all of the "even" transponders were receiving a signal but not on the "odd" ones.

Next I checked the multi-switch (it is located where the cables from the satelite split into your house) and I found it to be very warm/hot to the touch. I ordered and installed the "Eagle Aspen" multiswitch from Amazon and my problem was fixed. At the end of the day I saved myself a costly repair visit by Direct TV!
