LNB Question - Techwatch: Satellite TV forums, FTA, Cable, Hardware, & Tech forums

^G@w@in^ · 30-05-08, 09:04 PM

I have a motorized dish and want to know if it is possible to use a twin output lnb, I only need one box to move the dish so the second box will not need to control the motor.
Will this work ?

\Not a problem there mate, as long as the two channels you would be watching are on the same satellite then the twin output LNB would work a treat, whilst you are at it, why not got a Quad or even an octo uotput one and run 4 or even 8 boxes, remember that you can have any box connected, even an old Sly dodgybox, from Ebay? As long as you have one box to run the motor, the signal from the LNB outputs will all go to different boxes and any channel from the satellite that the "driving" box has the dish on, can be viewed on any of the boxes.

Very best regards Wez
