My System: TM6800HD, TM1000, TM600 Linux,TM5200, TM2200 motor, Triax TD110 dish + Fortec 85cm. Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT

I would throw away the splitter.


How you connect it depends on your priorities.

If you want both receivers to have full access to all channels at the same time (eg record one channel while watching another) on the satellite that the dish is pointing to then a twin LNB is the best way to go, with one receiver controlling the motor.

However, if you only want to use one receiver at a time, or are happy with the 2nd receiver having limited access, then you can use the loopthrough.

With the loopthrough, both receivers would be able to control the motor, while the other one is turned OFF.
