My System: Technomate 1500CI+ and Hauppauge WinTV NOVA-HD-S2 on a 104 cm motorized dish and Humax HDCI200 on 90 cm motorized dish. |
Is it possible to use one motorised dish and automatically or manually but I would prefer automatically switching between the two different receivers. I am wondering would either reciever need to know which satellite the other receiver has been set at before I switch over? I have a Technomate and Humax HD boxes on 1.05m dish with Motek Disqec/USALS motor The reason is I want to take down the wall mounted 90cm dish because of the high winds this week it has gone out of alignment, and then resite at ground level when we have better weather so its easier to adjust if need be. Also this has what has happened to my Invacom LNB, the thin orange plastic layer has completed shattered and when taken down I literally poored out water. Thanks. Sorry for the poor quality it was a quick camera phone job. Last edited by remlap; 20-01-2007 at 03:08 PM | ||

Note: I had a skyware sx1019/S (the minidish variant) which was also flooded, but I think it had been flooded for a long time, so it refused to work properly (I got some signal, but barely enough to even watch an analogue channel!!!), so be quick and dry your LNB out!!!
