[QUOTE="archive10, post: 987577"] In addition, there's also the full-blown multi-dwelling approach (most elaborate, both in terms of cost and effort). If there's a separate cable running to each room, you can install a quad or quattro LNB on each dish, and use a 8-in multi-switch to distribute the signal to each room. This allows each room to independently switch between the two LNBs without interfering with each other. (This is what you would do eg in an apartment building.) You need: - 1 8-in x-out (#rooms) multi-switch (eg EMP Centauri or Spaun). - 2 quattro LNBs (or quads, if the multi-switch supports this) - 2 x 4 sets of cable running from multi-switch to LNBs - DiSEqC capable receivers. There is a caveat, though: If both sat-providers require proprietary receivers, you can stll only have one active (turned on) at any given moment. If this is a problem, you need to look into the stacker or unicable options mentioned above, [/QUOTE]
