[QUOTE="DanielP, post: 519709, member: 290514"] Sorry, couldn't resist (I can just about manage French; my translation is slightly above babelfish!)- The DiSEqC tone burst function permits the connection of two LNBs to the IF IN input. For this, one must have a tone burst switch (ref 432507) if you have two LNB (via two dishes or two head fixture). Similarly, there are LNBs called "monoblocs" which are made with two LNBs spread to handle the capture of Astra and Hotbird via an 80cm dish, all placed in a box containing a DiSEqC 1.0 switch as well. Certain are Tone Burst compatible (see packaging). I plan to run this box off the loopthrough of my Fortec Star box- I guess if the DiSEqC doesn't work out, I can use the Fortec box to switch LNBs first. I doubt whether I will need to go to Hotbird much anyway, though I want to check out the Polish channel. Daniel [/QUOTE]
