Hi guys

Could someone please confirm that the following is correct?

I have a single view hd decoder (already installed) and a single view dsd decoder (not installed, was my previous decoder) that I want to use to get extra view in my bedroom.

Am I right by saying that i just need to replace the lnb with a twin lnb (exactly the same position) , cable from twin lnb to each decoder, cable from rf in/out from one decoder to rf in/out to the other decoder, which is the "heartbeat" and contact dstv to activate extra view? The settings as far as i know, i just need to make sure that on tv one and tv two the settings is the same (rf in / rf in etc)? i cannot enter the settings at the moment, guess this only become available when extra view is activated.

thank you.
 
I came to the same conclusion as you. Bought all I need and will be doing the setup at my moms house this weekend.
 
That's perfect man, you seem to know exactly what you are doing and it should work perfectly.
