    Unicable 1 LNB are usually sold with 4 SCR channels although technically cable of more.
    Unicable 2/Jess LNBs are usually sold in 24/32 SCR channels although technically cable of more.

    IMO, waste of money getting Unicable 1 LNB.

    Thanks Abu.
    So if manage to get the right adapter and a Unicable 2 lnb. Is it a simple case of running the cable from the LNB straight into my fbc tuner.
    If I domt bother with a splitter, how many channels would it allow me to record?

    I already answered that question in your other thread. All 8 demodulators/tuners can be set. So you will be able to record almost anything you want on 28.2.

    Oh right OK
    Well I'm glad I can use my current dish. Only issue is the adapter I need is out if stock and i can't find it anywhere else. Also would the satellite cable plug into the top or bottom tuner or it does not matter?
    So it should be a simple case of installing the dish and running one of my two existing cables.

    Now to find the right Unicable 2 lnb. Anyone know any good ones where I don't have to use a splitter
