Default One LNB two receivers?


Hi,
Can anyone tell me if it is possiable to connect two receivers to one LNB using the 'LOOP THROUGH' on one of the receivers.

Thanks in advance.

You will only be able to watch Channels of the same polarity and band. Not very useful. Why not get yourself a dual LNB. They allow you to watch any channel.

If fitting a new LNB you may as well fit a Quad or Octo so you have plenty of outputs in case you decide to get Sky+/HD in the future as Sky+ requires two feeds so 2 Sky+ boxes would need 4 cable feeds.
