Cable split for sky plus?

[Klang]

Hi there....
I'm just wondering about this....

This is the set-up that I have...

I have the normal sky plus set-up,,,but a few days ago,,I got in a Dreambox. So I took one of the feeds from the sky box,,to use for the dreambox. So,I have both systems up and running,but I now have no recording facility.

Since the lnb is already powered up with the sky box,can I split the feed thats feeding the dreambox,and use that to feed the sky plus recording port?

If not,,is there any other way round it? I don't really want to have to pay out €70.00 just to get someone to run another new cable,with more drilling.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Welcome to the forum.

The only option would be to run an additional cable from the LNb. Splitting one of the cables will interrupt voltage and tone commands from the receiver.

Thanks very much for your very fast reply..

Nearly as fast as My €70.00 is going to go for the running of a new cable..

Cheers..
