[QUOTE="skydreamer, post: 135147, member: 192765"] This is possible but not very user friendly. My wife definitely dissapproved that. :rolleyes: More convenient solution is to buy a satellite coax relay switch that is size of a matchbox and trading at approx €20. Plug the Dreambox in the master output and Sky digibox into the slave output. LNB is connected to the input. When you turn the Dreambox on the relay senses on its master input incoming power, ignores the slave and switches the LNB to Dreambox. You can turn the dish and everybody's happy. After you switch the Dreambox to standby, the relay disengages and connects the LNB back to Dreambox, which can receive upgrades and operate as usual. I have not noticed any quality or signal strenght issues with the switch. However the question stands why would you want to use Sky digibox when you can get the same functionality from Dreambox, which can record as well? [/QUOTE]
