[QUOTE="blackninja, post: 71279, member: 180789"] Thanks, but for one reason or another a separate cable isn't practicable for the setup of the house. Think I'll go down the switch route. I've seen a few diseqc switches on the net. I know my Smart reciever's compatible with diseqc but I'm not sure whether my Sky box is. Does this matter - would the cable at the receiver end still give me 28 East if connected to the sky box and 13 East and 28 East on the Smart receiver? (presuming each dish points in those directions) Think I've seen a setup where this is the case. I've currently got a system where I can watch whatever channel's on the sky box downstairs on the tv upstairs, just by plugging the upstairs outside aerial lead into the upstairs telly. Don't ask me how it works - the guy who installed sky set it up. If I connected a coax cable to the aerial lead and plugged it into a satellite receiver would this work? [/QUOTE]
