Hi there,
I need some help with my Passion+ and a Diseqc switch.:-worship
How do I set it up with the Passion receiver?
I am very new to this. My aim is to connect to Sat dishes via a switch to my receiver.
I hope someone knows how to do this.
TIA

If you have a 2 or 4 port DiseqC switch going to two LNB's (presumably you have two dishes with one LNB on each dish)) assign one satellite in the Antenna Setup menu to DiseqC A and the other satellite to DiseqC B. May have to swop round A and B though.

Thanks Llew. That was I thought. I'll try it out later. What size of dish do I need to receive Astra 19.2 channels. I live in Somerset.

50cm - 60cm for best reception :)

Cutting it a bit fine, but worth a try.
