Hi all,

Just thought of a new workaround for 2 Revievers on 1 motorised dish.

I have TM500 connected to motor, Tm9100 on second output of lnb.

With My PDA Smartphone connected to wireless network I can log into the TM500 and Zap it to whatever channel I want. I have created a bouquet with a FTA channel on each sat and renamed the channels with the Sat Position.

So now if i've gone to bed and want to switch sats I just log in with my phone and zap to whichever sat I want easialy.

It's the easiest workaround I've found so far.

Regards, Rick.

By request, a short guide on how to do this. Feedback Welcome. When downloaded you need to rename the file deleting the .txt extension.
