[QUOTE="Spiff, post: 1063447, member: 404998"] Good evening from Mullion Cove Cornwall : ) At present I have two sat receivers of different makes. Two Primesat box's A diseqc 1 aerial switch with up to four outputs. Two sat dishes, one KU one C band. I would like to drive both dishes from one receiver by connecting them as below : - KU LNB coaxial to one Primesat box C band LNB coaxial to second Primesat box. Both box's to two of the sockets on a diseqc 1 aerial switch. The output of the diseqc switch to the sat receiver. The KU band dish receives about 35 sats The C band dish is only set up for two sats at the moment. By setting up the diseqc 1 signal in the Technomate receiver, I can arrange for it to select either of the Primesat box's via the diseqc aerial switch and thus drive the KU or C band dish. Question is will this work ? For instants the C band sats at 5 West and 20 East will not see all the pulses from the jack reed switch leading up to that position, as the diseqc switch will have been switched to the other Primesat box for the KU band sats. The same will occur when switching back to KU band. Both Primesat box's are connected to their relevant jacks via the motor and sensor feeds required. God Bless Spiff [/QUOTE]
