I have a fortec ultra which I wanted to hook up to a second tv so I used the IF out and hooked it up to my tv and all I get is a snowy tv. Shouldn't I be able to watch what my other tv is watching. My main tv is working but the second one is not . Am I doing something wrong. My tv is on channel 3 same as switch.

Wrong!!!!!

IF OUTPUT = Output to second receiver (Not to TV input)

You need dual LNB. Each LNB out put go to IF input of your receiver.

If you have more than one satellite (LNB), you must have dual LNB and two DISEqC switches. :)

Mr. ringo,

1st. receiver IF output go to 2nd. receiver IF input.

However, when you watch the VERTICAL frequency channel on the 1st. receiver and then you can not watch the HORIZONAL frequency channel on 2nd. receiver.

But you can watch any channel on 2nd receiver if you turn off the 1st. receiver.
