[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 352361, member: 174998"] That makes sense. And yet splitters [I]are[/I] being sold as a cheap (albeit stupid) way of connecting multiple receivers to a single LNB.

There's a jolly good reason for this I'm sure, but I've no idea what. In fact, is it not the case that a splitter with a single power-pass-through is actually a tap, in which case Maplin's labelling its goods wrongly? Or should I have taken up a different hobby?
