[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 992016, member: 176704"] Milamber Please take a look at what I said above about diseqc switches as Jason currently has a quite a basic switch between Tuner B and the steerable dish (and one LNB on the fixed dishes) and I think that could be a part of his problems. Certainly, when I cascaded the BEST switches after the EMP one then access to the LNBs on the outputs of the BEST was problematical and unreliable, with no access at all to Ports C&D (and that was later confirmed by the guy at EMP when I sent both of them back to him for testing). PS: was faced with the same SWMBO problem a few weeks ago - that's why I fitted Smart Priority Switches in the lines from the dishes, with the new cables running to our 3rd bedroom/office where the receivers and a couple of cheap monitors and our PC's are now located. Makes life easier, although, TBH, the Sky box is now connected to the Zone 2 dish which is now on the conservatory roof, and is entirely separate from the dishes at the end of the garden (OTOH, this sort of setup may not be viable for you unless you put up another dish - or maybe just another/twin LNB on an existing dish - just for 28E!).
