    vu+ duo2 multisat approach?

    just bought vu+ duo2 few months back and thought i would start looking for advice to get the most out of it (set it up). Gonna try and set it up with a multi sat approach. After research I think I am looking at, 4x disecq (each one 4 in, 1 out), Wavefield 90cm Dish, 4x Quad LNBs? My thinking is that the 90cm dish can receive from 4 satellites, The Quad LNBs will provide a feed from each one to a Disecq (so four satellites onto one 'wire'), as I will have four Disecq switches that will be suitable four my Duo2 as it has four tuners. This should then allow me to record whatever mix I want as all 4 tuners have all for satellites covered. I appreciate I can get more out of this setup by perhaps doubling my satellites by only using two tuners and maybe using the other two tuners with other sateliite positions. I think my way will be best for a first timer though- thoughts and advice on set up and which equipment to buy is more than welcome.

    4 x 4/1 IDTE Diseqc switch i use these they have a Low Loss output and recently won the test in switch's in Wotsat magazine, Dont forget get some decent Quad LNB's as the loss on the switches will not be as great as using some cheap ?5 quad.

    Again Personally i use the Smart Titanium Rocket Quad around ?25 but have excellent Gain and the Shape allows you to squeeze them in very tight places
