    Basically Tuners A, C, D, E, F, G & H will be setup with the JESS LNB in the tuner configuration setup. Tuner B could be used for a motorised setup.

    Sounds a smart setup and the way forwards. A different dish is needed then, currently using sky mini dish?

    Yeah I have a Technomate 65cm Mesh Dish bought from WoS. You might be able to get an LNB adapter for the existing Sky Dish, but don't take my word for that.

    You can get an adapter collar for a normal lnb on a mk4/mk5 sky dish but you may need add a bit of extra support to them.

    Looking at Jess lnb's on eBay some have one cable others have two or three. Also you can use it for Light sky, Mysky, or MyskyHD. If you only need one cable what are the other 2 for & what is Mysky ect.

    Those other ports are legacy ports. Nothing to do with Unicable. They are for STBs the don't support Unicable.

    You do not want a switch. That is to work with a quattro LNB.

    Nope. There was an issue with some users which related to softcam issues, but as far as I know they have been fixed.

    To get best out of the Vu+ 4K boxes, Unicable II (JESS) LNB is the way to go. Kodi still not great, can only get better in time imo, but for now stick with an Amazon Fire TV.
