Default Multiswitch. for quad LNB?


Is there multiswitch available that will take a quad LNB i/p as opposed
to a quattro LNB? I'm looking so an 8 o/p unit.

Vision used to do one, but they discontinued it a while back. You can
get 22kHz tone inserters and you could get the 13 and 18V from outboard
PSUs, but it's a faff.

Thanks Bill. Sounds like it's a lot easier to change the LNB.

This one clames to be "Quad LNB compliant: Yes" What do you think?

That's the same one I found. That short url produces an error because
the way the website works. I explained how to get to the correct page in
my other post.

Fancy that! By the way guys, that electric fire on the front page looks
rather like one I bought for £6 from Asda in an emergency. The motor
stalled after not very long and the thing then produced a lot of smoke
and scared us.

Actually your link failed and Graham's worked for me (unless it's the
sequence of visiting the site twice that does the trick).
