[QUOTE="HB13DISH, post: 483723, member: 262829"] Hello NDexter, I will leave the parts regarding the motor to a more experienced member. Regarding the other points 1 - Since the Topfield has 2 tuners, then I would certainly use a triple LNB if this exists or a quad and run 3 cables 2 for the digital receiver and 1 to the analogue. 2 - I will never use loopthrough if I can help it as if there is a risk to the LNB or the receivers, then I will not take that risk. For me to change the LNB is a very costly matter as it is situated at roof top and I need a specialist to come and replace it if it becomes damaged. For members who can change it easily, this might not be such a big thing. 3 - AV receiver is used for home cinema and they should have several video and audio inputs and outputs, usually RCA connectors and not Scart. You can always use a scart-RCA cable to connect to it from your receivers. Mine has a 5 video inputs and it makes life a lot easier switching between various boxes. Good Luck [/QUOTE]
