[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 783178, member: 176256"] It won't work the way you want it. The Labgear HDU681/S combines the two satellite feeds with TV/FM/DAB signals and then outputs the combined signals on two designated outputs. These should be the ones going to the Freesat + box as this needs two satellite inputs. All the other other outputs on the HDU681/S are just combined TV/FM/DAB. You need to change the two ouput LNB to a four (quad), or even eight (octo), ouput type and then run a separate lead to the other satellite box. In order to get it work the way you want using trplex and quadplex sockets on the wall you need to change to a multiswitch setup which will combine the signals as you want. This also needs a four output LNB (usually a quattro although some multiswitches will work with a quad). You may need a separate combiner for TV/FM/DAB as not all (most?) multiswitches only have one extra input for the non-sat inputs. [/QUOTE]
