[QUOTE="Topper, post: 670273, member: 186250"] As mentioned it is because of the loopthrough. The polarity of the lnb that is controlled by the first receiver dictates that the 2nd stb will only be able to watch channels on that polarity, thus limiting your viewing choices on the 2nd stb, unless the 1st stb is put in standby then the 2nd stb has control The dish can only point at one satellite at any one time therefore you can only receive channels on both stb's from the same satellite at the same time. What I suspect you are experiencing is the re-use of frequencies across the arc which makes it look like you are receiving from two different satellites at the same time [/QUOTE]
