[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 991815, member: 176704"] Mickha I don't particularly need/want to set my steerable and fixed dishes up on the same tuner - just the steerable one on Tuner A and the fixed dishes on Tuner B via the diseqc switch, but without the problem of the Rx immediately changing to Tuner B when I try to select a satellite that is already set up on Tuner B for one of the fixed dishes - and the steerable dish won't then move to it!! The reason is that I might possibly want to record 2 channels on the satellite at which the steerable dish is currently pointed, with Tuner A using the 1st part of the Twin LNB on the steerable dish and Tuner B, via the diseqc switch, using the 2nd part of the Twin LNB - but I can't currently do that without setting up the same actual satellite separately on each tuner but with slightly different nominal orbital locations (say 28.1 and 28.2) so that the Rx considers them to be two entirely different birds (which, given the number of LNBs connected to the switch, would be a rather laborious task :().
