Re: Please help a beginner

Thanks for info but can you tell me how this loop out output works.? Can I watch 2 different channels on the Fortec and the PCI? Do I set the channel on the Fortec and this controls the channel on the PCI?
What if I were to watch only one receiver at a time, will a simple High Freq 2 way splitter work in this case? In appreciate your help.
Thanks

Don't forget to turn off the "llnb power" option for your PCI card. If it does not have the "lnb power ON/OFF" option, then use a DC blocker to block the DC from the PCI.
Good luck
