My sister-in-law has a shared comunal dish, and dual LNB, with a neighbour. It seems that if the neigbour turns off their decoder then my sister-in-laws TV goes off as well, except for Sky News (???). I understand that there is a seperate feed to each decoder from the dual LNB and there is no pass through from one decoder to another.
I am aware that the decoder provides power to the LNB and initially my thought was that this was the issue but then she mentioned the Sky News quirk.
With a dual LNB is the power supplied by ONE of the decoders or does each decoder provide power to its own part of the LNB? (I do not know which LNB they have in the system so if the answer to the power is not generic I will have to check it; roof of an 8 storey block of appartments)
