Dual polarity does it mean both pol at same time

[Cband55]

Hello can I get both polarities at the same time on different receivers
on LNBFs that say DUAL polarity LNBF or is that a wrong statement.

thanks

that's B/S:

If you want both polarities at the same time, go look at the C2 LNBF with two actual outputs.
You can set one to vertical and one to horizontal (and use a multiswitch to feed multiple receivers)...or...
... or you could just hook up two receivers and be done with it.

The only other realistically priced alternative is the B1 bandstacked LNBF (same link), but that's probably not for beginners.

Thanks to their stupid marketing and bad labeling, I could never find real dual output LNBs on eBay.
no, No, N:rant:O, No, no!

what these do is use the little boxes like his Sonicview 8000, with the voltage 13/18 to do the switching right ?

correct. You can switch polarities through the coax but they only have one output.

The 2 that anole posted can support more than 1 receiver at a time (and use opposite polarity)
