[QUOTE="Martial, post: 792391, member: 250426"] Hi guys. I am living in an appartment block and recently the council have installed 3 fixed dishes (turksat, hotbird and sky 28). All 3 dishes are currently hooked up to one receiver with an 8 to 1 technomate splitter via the outlet plate. I have 3 cables running from the plate to the switch and then 1 cable from switch to receiver. I would like to know if it is possible (if I buy let's say a Zinwell 6 X 8 Multi-Switch) to connect all 3 dishes to two receivers so I can watch and/or record whatever I want on any satellites. I understand that there are some switches where the LNB's horizontal & vertical cables have to be connected individually but I cannot use that kind of set ups as the installation is a communal one. Or maybe there is another way to do it?:confused: My 2 receivers for information are a TM5402 and a DM600 PVR. [/QUOTE]
