one dish witha monoblock 19 & 13 ( so built in DISEqC ) one cable

other dish single output 30w one cable


now can that both be pluged into a 2 or 3 way DISEqC switch and one cable outputted to a reciever?

or is the only route 3 seperate lnbs into a DISEqC switch?

I dont think it would work m8

3 lnb,s into 1 switch definitely works

and you could fit an A-B manual switch too , to switch between the single lnb and the monoblock

I have a monoblock for 13 and 19 and a single LNB for 28. I had to fit a manual switch as I couldn't find a way to use a diseqc switch with the already built in one on the monoblock. The 28 signal is not all that strong, though I usually watch that stuff on Freeview now anyway.

A manual switch is good because I have to get off the sofa occasionally and that keeps me really fit - otherwise I'd be one of those couch potatoes :D
