[QUOTE="pgh13, post: 407127, member: 191774"] You can make a splitter very cheaply from a conventional UHF splitter/combiner by taking out the innards and then connecting a small capacitor - say 100pF in parallel with a diode - say1N4002 from the centre of each socket to the centre of the plug with the end of the diodes with the line at the common end. The capacitor gives a path for the signal to the receiver and the diode allows the dc to reach the LNB. though not an ideal solution, its workable where you want to use receiver A or receiver B, but if both are in use at once, both will only be able to access the same band and polarity (set by the receiver outputting the higher voltage etc) [/QUOTE]
