Hi,
Would anyone please be able to advise me if there is a non DiSEqC switch that I can use to get three or possibly four dishes connected to a twin tuner receiver? My first thought was to use a couple of A/B switches in reverse mode with what is normally the A/B switch input source acting as an output going to the receiver.
As far as I know the A/B switches are simply a mechanical push button routing of the signal so it might work. However, I am not sure if I will get signal bleed over that might mess things up or some other type of interference. Has anyone tried using an A/B switch in reverse mode with 2 dishes into a single receiver?
Alternatively, if anyone knows of any other non DiSEqC option I would be grateful for the heads up. I am aware there are some coroprate grade units such as a Distribution RF Matrix but they seem to be overkill for the job if there is a cheaper and simpler option.
