[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 18925, member: 174998"] If you're only talking about two receivers then the simplest solution is as CH stated above - a twin LNB. But that still leaves you with the issue of controlling the motor. I can only imagine how confused your receiver downstairs will get when it switches back on one day oblivious to the fact that your receiver upstairs had changed the dish position in the meantime... If indeed you are the only person using them, and assuming you can't be in two places at once and will not need to record one programme while watching something different (or whatever), then I can also suggest a different approach: loop the LNB coax through the first receiver and on to the second. The Echostar receivers support loopthrough. I must admit that I've not tried connecting two Exhostars lie this but I have had Nokias as a slave to the Echostar. Just a thought. You could also simply use one receiver downstairs (say) and feedthe video upstairs via a video-transmitter (I use this for the bedroom). depends what you are wanting to do with each receiver. 2old [/QUOTE]
