[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 976209, member: 176704"] Good afternoon Reference the possibility of cascading the Opticon to one of the BEST switches, I tried that out yesterday, and it “half worked”. With the BEST connected to Port 10 on the Opticon, the receiver could see Port 1 (i.e. 13E) on the BEST, but could only see the LNB on Port 2 (19E) if I first selected Port 1 and then went to Port 2 – and would not regain that connection if I then went to another satellite and back again unless I went first to Port 1/13E. Also I could not select either of the LNBs on Port 3 (28E) or Port 4 (33E) whatever I did. I then replaced the BEST with the old Spaun 411, and that demonstrated the same behaviour – so I think the concept of cascading the Opticon to any Diseqc 1.0 switch will not work. John John [/QUOTE]
