[QUOTE="Skip Channel, post: 159676, member: 175117"] You know, I didn't get a penny for that picture and they didn't even send me the edition with my dish in it. Okay, I was cheeky and asked if they could possibly give me a years sub :D but then look what they give the readers who send in the Letter of the Month! Me, bitter? ;) In a moment of madness I was gonna stump up for it yesterday when I happened to be in the only local shop that stocks it - and when I looked it was January's! :-DOH! Oh well, that's £4 that can go towards a twin LNB or two! :D Anyway... I serious about DiSEqC-ing 5 LNBs, but as I'm on a tight budget I might have to just do with 4. It's going to be cheaper with just 4 and a lot easier. That'll still mean those four major birds 13e, 19e, 28e and 30w. For real TV channels and radio stations they're the best ones IMO (certainly with the dishes I have). And then my 5e/5w/8w minidish could just feed my other satellite receiver. Wouldn't be able to record on it but there's not a great deal to receord on those. Same goes for Picture-in-Picture - not really neccessary for the occasional viewing they'll get. BTW how do people with those Torrodial dishes get the dozens of LNB feeds into one receiver? I'm guessing with a switch like rolfw suggested? [/QUOTE]
