    Switching Satellites

    I have a Linux satellite box, which only has on tuner, but I have two Static dishes (one for Sky Italia/Germany and one for Sky UK). Every time I want to watch a different satellites channels, I have to take out the sat wire from the back of the box.

    My question is, is their a switch or something similar, where I don't have to keep changing the wire from the back, other than getting a twin tuner box?

    What linux receiver do you have? You should be able to use a 2 way diseqc switch.

    It's a Technomate 600. I'm using a monoblock to get Sky Italia and Sky Germany. Will a Diseqc switch work with a monoblock?
