[QUOTE="elsmandino, post: 1029632, member: 356020"] Very impressive - I have both Turkish and Polish friends and love talking to them about their language. Turkish seems pretty hard, but Polish seems so complex that I am pretty sure I couldn't learn anything without actually living there. That is a very interesting/informative thread you referred me to. I think it is my fundamental misunderstanding of how satellite broadcasts work that is holding me back. So am I correct in thinking the following is true (taking 28.2e as an example): 1. Each satellite broadcasts over a wide range of frequencies and those frequencies are split into four bands - HL, HH, VL, VH 2. Each band is made up of a set number of frequencies, called transponders. 3. Each transponder contains about 10 channels. 4. A single tuner, connected to a single LNB, can only tune into a single transponder, meaning only those 10 are so channels can be viewed/recorded at that time. 5. An FCB tuner, connected to the same LNB, is able to simultaneously record four transponders, as long as they are all on the same band. 6. An FCB tuner, connected to a quad unicable LNB, is able to pick up sixteen transponders, as long as they are all on the same band. 7. Using the second tuner, as a virtual tuner for the first input, and connecting an octo LNB, two different bands can be received at any one time, meaning a possibility of 32 transponders. Is that correct? [/QUOTE]
