I though the the 4 outputs of a quad LNB are hi/V lo/V hi/H and Lo/H. Or is that a quattro LNB? So what you are saying is that a quad LNB can supply any of the 4 "freqs/polarization" down any of its 4 connections? Any if required the same signal down all 4 connections? This solution is certainly a lot cheaper because otherwise he would need 12 input lines, so the spaun would not have worked as it only had 8 Sat input lines. So he would have needed a more expensive model. Cheers Brian _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
