[QUOTE="fazersale, post: 643989, member: 334513"] Thanks everyone for the information and insights (with special thanks to PaulR for explaining things in babysteps). I've read up on both octo LNB's and Quattro LNB's and think I get the gist of things - with the Quattro LNB/multiswitch set up sounding [I]indeed[/I] the tidier option. A couple more baby questions occur to me.. 1) the terrestrial aerial goes to the multiswitch, but does it need amplifying in the same way as it might have to be were it being simply split by traditional means? Or does the multiswitch boost the signal strength. Or does something else occur? 2) how does one access the terrestrial channels - is it that they'll be picked up by the set top box during setup? Thanks again for the assistance, ain't discussion forums a wonderful thing! Ian [/QUOTE]
