Loop Through or Sat A Sat B

[mick4545]

I have a normal LNB with two coaxes running into the two inputs on the HD51. Should the tuners be set to 'Loop Through' or Sat A Sat B? What is the difference between the two connections?

Thanks

You need a feed going into Tuner A and a feed going into Tuner B to fully utilise your receiver.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was on Loop Through. Now Tuner A and B tuned as:

AVL6211 (DVB-S2) 1KR/L/M/N
Simple
19.2E Astra

With that setup I should Be able to record 2 channels and watch a recorded program at the same time, is that correct?

If I want to record more than 2 programs at the same time I will need a Unicable, is that correct
?

See both tuner the same, you'll be able to watch and record across two transponders, so will be more than just 2 channels.

You'll gain nothing with a Unicable LNB because the tuners in the HD51 are not FBC tuners.
