[QUOTE="CSB, post: 765167, member: 327991"] Thanks OldBen for the reply, After re-reading through my post/question I will clarify: Your first point is correct, my [I]novice[/I] objective was to replace a single 4/1 with the 8/1 and add a motor through it. The reception on "13/19/28" on the 60cm is good enough for me (I've had it working good before). Both my reciever's are Enigma1 Linux (Technomate 600 and DM500s clone, as per "My System"), but for this I am using the TM600 As for searching, I've read and followed many posts on this forum over the last couple of years. Only searching the web, is how I found this switch, and a posted my question in [I]What to Buy-What to Install[/I] So to Clarify: Living in West-London with a small, but south facing garden with a good view east to west and part of a terraced street I can only have (current regulations) 2 satellite dishes (100/60cm). I changed my [B]Original single receiver with motorised dish(1m) install[/B], to a fixed dish(1m with 4 dual Lnbs) +(single Lnb from second dish 60cm), for faster satellite switching and to accomodate an additional receiver. I have (2) 4-way comitted switches. [I]Reciever 1: 28.2e, 23.5e, 19.2e & 13e Receiver 2: 28.2e, 19.2e, 13e & 30w(now redundant for FTA) [/I] This all works perfect. I would like to add a motor to "Reciever 1", which I cant do with a 4-way if I want to keep 4 fixed satellites. This is why I'm asking for advice on the my next upgrade. The Switch I posted my question I found online "AXING SPU 81-00 8 IN 1 DISEQC RELAY" for £46, although a bit on the high side of my budget, would let me expand my 2 dish limitations with additional DISEqC ports. However if there is a cheaper/better alternative, uncommitted 2 way +(2x 4-way) that you can help with. I have no experience in these things, so look for your help ? :confused: [/QUOTE]
