[QUOTE="ghinzani, post: 597269, member: 316708"] I was hoping there would be a 3way switcher that I could use to switch the single feed from Astra 13e between an Analouge receiver, a Digital Goldcrest receiver (both plugged into the same tv) , and then perhaps an old Sky box over on my desk. However all I could see on Ebay was a two way switcher so I guess I am just limited to switching between the Analouge for English language Eurosport or the Goldcrest Digi for Digital channels. Thats basically what I am doing at the moment, however it means unplugging of cable each time, so the switcher I assume would just enable me to do that remotely? Also heres a quick couple of follow up questions if you dont mind, when I plugged in a couple of old Sky boxes to the feed, although they had strong signals and quality they both said no sat signal was being recieved? Are there none of the Sky channels on 19e?? The other question I have is when I scanned initially with the Goldcrest I forgot to change the sat from 28 to 19 and it picked up some channels anyway, channels which are now not there when I have scanned 19e. That sort of contradicts what I have found with the Sky boxs as mentioned above. If I scan all the other satellites will it add in anything else thats available? Currently on 19e Im getting no Freesat type channels or fringe Sky channels like the God stuff? [/QUOTE]
