Saorsat on 9e

    I see the Ka Band LNBs are coming on the market and was considering trying one out. Can I merge the Ka and Ku and feed signal through my existing cable to my Openbox S10 (80cm motorised dish, universal lnb). Any help appreciated.

    My understanding is that only one lnb can be active at once(master + slave) on the same cable,otherwise use a diseqc switch (A-B ),
    but I´m not sure if the switch would hamper the voltage needed to run the motor ...as it has always been recommended to run a cable directly from lnb (via potional motor ) to the box without any extra connections..
    you could always fit a dedicated fixed dish/lnb for saorsat then diseqc both cables,,but as I wrote, not sure if enough power supply would get to the motor..
