I have a couple of stationary dishes with single output lnb's that I would like to split off to another receiver. I prefer to use some kind of splitter if at all possible. Is there a splitter that works for this? I understand the polarity has to be the same on both receivers but this is not an issue because the lnb has to be turned to change polarity.

I have never been a fan of a splitter connecting two fta receivers together because of the voltages the receivers send down the coax. Either use a A/B switch or invest in dual lnbs.

you will need a 3x4 or a 4x4 and one diseqc for each box. If using a single LNB then you need to choose which polarity you want to download (13V for verticals and 18V for Horizontals). Here is a thread from a friend in a very close and trusted forum with differents configuration so you can take a look, Good Luck
