[QUOTE="mostwanted, post: 897000, member: 402709"] I would like to ask a question about a satellite TV setup. Firstly, I should let you know that I don't have a comprehensive view of the setup, because it's a residential main setup in the roof of an apartment building on which I don't have access to. I know though that there are 4 LNBs in the same sat cable for each apartment. In my house I need to setup 2 receivers in 2 different sats of theirs and have them work at the same time. I asked some local electronics shops what can I do and I used a simple sat splitter with no luck. Then i used a [Multi-Switch Relay][1] with not so good results. I can switch from one receiver to the other but only for some hours. I think that the 5V output from the receiver SCARTs makes the 2nd receiver reboot and lose it's settings. I heard about the Stacker - Destacker solution but I read that it needs a great signal, good cable quality and small distance so that I can be really confident about it. I'd like to ask for suggestions of a solid and reliable solution. Mind you, a new second cable isn't an option and I don't really care about the cost. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
