So, you have only 1 feed going to the box?
If so, what sats does that feed have access to?

well in that case it is rather pointless having the loop-through

Set tuner A to simple, single, 28.2 & tuner B to loopthrough so.
I don't have an Ultimo to check but believe it works the same way on a Duo, while it works the opposite way on the Solo 2...

No, loopthrough gives many more recording/viewing options if stuck with a single feed.

just for own knowledge judge, what advantages from recording viewing do you get from a loopthrough on a single feed on single sat?
