with cable nearing its end im having sleepness nights at the thought of the disney channel taking over in our living room.
at the present time i run a DM7020-s on a 90cm dish to the living only (on CS) whichj i mainly use for the prem football only ( and the odd nack movie :) )but i would like to send it to the two kids rooms and our bedroom so you can turn it over as well , say just on 28E.

at the mo im on a single LNB so please put me right if im wrong but would adding a quad LNB and say a DM500s in each room do the job ?.i've not a clue about the .cfg and what would happen there.
if its a bit touch and go replying to this thread please pm me any thoughts.

Yes just add a quad lnb,DM500's (connected to your network) and you would need to turn your DM7020 into a server to feed the other boxes providing your c/s provider has given you reshare rights.
 
although if you have a motorised system, they will only be able to watch what sat you are pointed at.
 
maybe worthwhile picking up a minidish theyre around £20 and then feeding this through to other room and gettin a clone dm500 then you will never be disturbed :D
