Hi Folks,

considering changing my extraview setup to dual Explora 2's to do away with the heartbeat cable. My question, is there a difference between using a dstv smart switch 5-2 vs a smart LNB? So i either leave my dual lnb in place and use a 5-2 or swop my lnb for a smart lnb.

Both decoders are currently in the lounge but i would like to re purpose the coax going to the bedroom for rf picture to a unicable so that i can move the second decoder and connect via hdmi.

thanks.
