2 cs5k's

tom Bronze Member Username: Kille Post Number: 26 Registered: Feb-05	Posted on Wednesday, December 26, 2007 - 03:24 GMT I have 2 csats and wondered if there was any way to use them for 2 sets. I tried splitting it from the sat cable..no luck. They are 3 sep dishes with single lnbs. Is there any way of running it through the one receiver to the other? Thanks for the help.

Post Number: 2382 Registered: Sep-06	Posted on Wednesday, December 26, 2007 - 03:34 GMT You have to use a disqc switch to use more than one antenna. Or a DP34 switch....You cannot use a regular cable splitter. What are you trying to do here? what is your receiver, what are the lnb,s and what sats are you trying to receive?

With the first receiver ON the second receiver will only be able to watch the same sat and tp as the first receiver(plus a couple other tp's) With first receiver OFF the second receiver will receive everything.

Lets wait and see just what he is trying to do first before we offer the solution
