Multistream? what exactly is this?
DVBS2X and FBC tuners...is there a difference?
Unicable II and JESS LNBs...is there a difference?
Thanks

Yes there is. You get FBC tuners that are DVBS2 and not DVBS2X. You also get FBC tuners that are DVBC. DVBS2x tuners are not necessarily FBC tuners.
Some info here about difference between s2/s2x

Yes. Jess is developed by Jultec and a little more advanced than Unicable II. https://wiki.openpli.org/Unicable_/_Jess
A glossary would be really useful!!
A few more clarifications:
Difference /advantage/when to use between:
loop through or equal to lnb settings??
FBC advanced settings or FBC Automatic??

As they say in the trade all of the above is as clear as mud. Not read links yet.
"Equal to" means "exactly the same as".
They are different functions. You would use equal to for what it says on the tin. It was designed for people with complicated diseqc setups so that they would not have to repeat configuration for something that is identical.
Loop-through is sharing a signal wire. There is internal loop through as well external loop through although very few receivers have this now.
In Unicable, connected to is a derivative of internal loop-through, but added difference of being able to configure it in its own right.
FBC automatic is also internal loop-through but automatic and dynamic based on what is physically hooked up to the two inputs.

Thanks for the info.
I have a question/scenario (of course)
1 satellite dish with one unicable 2 LNB.
Sat receiver #1 has FBC tuners, and supports Multistream.
Sat receiver #2 has FBC tuners, and does not support Multistream.
What can sat receiver #1 do that receiver #2 cannot do?
Thanks.
I'm bumping this post
If both tuners are pointed at 28e then there wont be a difference. 5W has quite a few multistream transponders - have a look at sites like kingofsat for details
