[QUOTE="a33, post: 1100047, member: 332642"] That would be a very unusual setup, as far as I know. I know that Unicable/JESS is designed to have the option to switch between LNBs, by 'addressing' the LNB you need. But this is normally done with the same UB/frequency. I believe sometimes Unicable LNBs are sold as a 'pair', programmed just for this purpose. Does your receiver support multiple LNB selection for Unicable? [S]The splitter you linked is meant for combining receivers to one Unicable/JESS LNB, so it has diodes from receiver to LNB. For your purpose, i.e. combining LNBs, no diodes are needed. So this one wouldn't work.[/S] [I]Edit: the diodes are the other way round here, according to the text of the link. Yes it would work. Wouldn't need diodes in it, though, so I don't understand why they put them in it. Maybe just to not allow you to try to use the splitter at the receiver end, and cause functional problems or even damage...?[/I] [S][/S] Supplying power to two Unicable LNBs with one receiver means a lot of current. So setups like these typically use a power inserter. But I'm no expert at all about Unicable/JESS. Top of the bill is Jultec (they made the JESS protocol, and very energyefficient and reliable products). See their website. Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
