[QUOTE="Condar, post: 1070321, member: 413668"] Hi a33. Thanks for the welcome! Hi Channel Hopper. The multiswitch has 8 outputs. One of the receivers (for use primarily with 19.2 E) is a Megasat HD 601 V2. That is the receiver I would use to move the DiSEqC motor. The other outputs are connected to other Freesat and non-Freesat STBs. I understand that on those occasions when I would have the dish aimed at 19.2 E, I would not simultaneously have any other satellite (particularly 28.2 E) available. However, 90% of the time the dish will be aimed at 28.2 E. a33: Is your setup as in sketch #2 attached? A disadvantage of that is the need, as you correctly state, for an additional coax cable. Because the DiSEqC motor would not be connected to an LNB, are you suggesting a terminator to replace the absent LNB? If so, do you have a terminator suggestion? Would the motor be damaged if a terminator was absent? As I would see it , the default position for the dish would be to 28.2 E. When I wanted to move it to 19.2 E, I would use the Megasat. When finished, I would redirect the dish back to 28.2 E. [/QUOTE]
