[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 804430, member: 325666"] Uk ..another slightly mad question ... I've had a re-think regarding the insertion of the extra diseqc 4 port switch on the pf dish itself ..and come up with another daft idea .. See the revised diagram .. The idea being that since I dont actually want signal to pass down to the Vbox motor control ..only the diseqc 22hz command to move the motor .. Could a 4 port diseqc switch be used in reverse .. Essentially as a 3 or 4 port tap with high isolation between the 4 inputs ..yet allowing the 22khz diseqc 1.2 command to find its way from any of the 3 or 4 outputs used from the 8 port uncomitted switch to the vbox and thus move the dish .. I have already tried a 4 port diseqc switch in this configuration as a test ...and regardless of which input port is used ..the motor does indeed move ..so the 22khz is finding its way to the Vbox .. My question really is regarding lnb isolation between the 4 ports used ...since the 4 port diseqc switch isn't receiving a command ...and simply being used as a 22khz tap .. ?? ANY feedback on this would be appreciated ..as doing this would require seperate cable runs outside for each lnb on the PF dish ...BUT in theory would reduce quite considerably ...insertion losses due to the effective removal of the 4 port switch in question .. rgds VS btw ..a plea to mods .. I realised this morning that I had posted this in wrong section ... could one of you please move it en bloc to Fringe ..or some other suitable location .. cheers VS [/QUOTE]
