    I have already answered the question as to what difference a Unicable LNB will make. I even posted a link to one of the guides. If it isn't clear, please say what you understand and where it stops making sense.

    I also suggested that you move the wires at the back of your receiver around so that you make the most of your equipment. Other than moving cables around and then changing tuner configuration to match, there is not much involved.

    Sorry, I am not going to spend my time repeating myself with you. Please do the following for now:

    Move the wire from motorised dish to Tuner I.
    Move the two 28.2 wires to tuners A&B.

    Set your tuners to match the changed setup.
    A = simple, single, 28.2
    B = Simple, single, 28.2
    I = Motorised
    J = internal loop through to I

    I am trying to help you get the most of your equipment.

    FBC tuner units/modules have 8 demodulators/tuners. Two have connectors/sockets for signal wires, 6 do not. When used with universal lnbs or left in fbc automatic, the demodulators/tuners without the connectors/sockets work as internal loop through. If you loop through to the motorised LNB, you are looping to one LNB port only. If you move the two 28.2 wires to the FBC tuner module, the six socket-less tuners can internal loop to 2 lnb ports instead of one. As you are in England, I am presuming that most of your viewing is on 28.2.

    Based on your picture, that you uploaded:
    You have an FBC tuner in tuner slot A at far right of picture. Those are tuners A-H.
    Your picture shows an empty tuner slot B.
    You have a twin legacy tuner module in tuner slot C on far left. Those are tuners I&J.

    Once you have done that, do not change the configuration unless you move wires.

    You have 7 unused tuners on your receiver. Why do you think you need another FBC tuner? Which channels are you trying to record. Please also say that satellite name.
