    How to connect 2 or more receivers to a C-band LNBF?

    how do I connect 2 or more receiver, I have a 36" dish pointed to 97°W, another 36" dish pointed to 23°W also a 1.8m fortec antena pointed to Intelsat 805 at 55.5°W with a BSC621 LNBF, there is only 1 conection in this LNBF. My ku dishes are connected to 5x8 multiswitch and 3 fta receivers on the other end.

    Unless you are certain that you'll only ever use one polarity transponder at a time, you'll need to upgrade that lnbf to a dual lnbf so that you can share it amongst more than one receiver. From there, I suppose a 2x4 or 3x4 multiswitch will give you the 3 outputs you need, then probably either a diseqc or 22k switch for each receiver that allows you to switch between your existing 5x8 and the new 3x4. There are plenty of diagrams of this setup floating around, but you'll need the right lnb first.

    Can you recommend a good dual lnbf for C-Band? Thanks for your help.
