One LNB Two Recievers

    My home is currently pre-wired with cable points in each room I have an 80cm dish pointed to astra and currently get all the available fta channels via a direct cable link (thru attic splitter) from my fta reciever to the lnb.
    Each cable point in the house terminates in the attic (5 coax from rooms one out to lnb)
    My question is can I connect multiple recievers to the same lnd with the use of cable splitters or does each reciever need to be connected to its own lnb connection (duel/quad lnb).
    My 80cm dish is fixed but not readly accessible

    Install a dual or quad lnb, splitters severely degrade the satellite signal.

    Splitters don't even work!

    There are 4 differnet sets of channels the LNB receives depending on command/seting from the receiver, thus if two receivers are on different "sets" one receiver will get nothing or possibly both will get nothing or the wrong channel.
