[QUOTE="spiney, post: 179810, member: 192438"] I didn't quite follow that, but ...... (Obviously), you can have 2, 1, or no receivers switched on! Assuming a "power pass all ports" splitter ..... Assuming both receivers "behave" - when switched off - so that neither presents a short circuit at sat if frequencies, then if just one on is no problem. If both on, then it's as I just described, there's a 1 in 4 change of both receivers wanting the same polarity, if that's so you're lucky, but otherwise one or both won't get the wanted channel. (Unless you want the same channel on both, that's never a problem!). Otherwise, with power blocking one or more ports, 22Khz still always overrides no tone, but only the power pass port controls 14/18v, so you have to work out what will happen for specific splitters ......
