Hi.
I have an original Explora as my main unit running off a dual LNB and through that switcher box thingy that was supplied with it.

At the other end of the house I have a HD PVR 2P  on a separate dish also with a dual LNB  cabled straight to it.

There is a heartbeat cable linking the 2 decoders. Everything works fine.

I have just bought a 3rd decoder. Explora Model 2A.

The new 2A will replace the PVR 2P  which will be moved to a room next to it. I would therefore like to run both off the 2nd dish as it will be an easy cabling job.

I would obviously have to replace that LNB because the new decoder only has a Unicable connection.

Is there an LNB with a Uni out, as well as connections for the 2 original cables for the PVR ?

Secondly. How would I now connect the heartbeat cable ?. Can I go from the Original Explora, through the HDPVR and then to the Explora 2 ?

Thanks in advance.
