    Hi folks,

    I'm planning on doing a little home project and I'll need to go down the multi-switch route as an octo LNB won't provide enough outputs. I came across the Goobay 5/16 Multischalter MS-516PQ and it seems reasonably priced and as a bonus it is quad LNB compatible.

    A few questions

    (1)Has anybody here any experience in using this particular model? Any better value models availible or recomendations? That doesn't necessarily mean cheaper.

    (2)Also regarding the terrestrial input (which I won't actually need but nice to have), I assume a satellite/terrestrial splitter is required at the output end, any recommendations for such a splitter. I may install a splitter but not at the cost of a significant signal degrading.

    (3)I've a nice new (new model) Sky dish with a quad LNB that I was planning to use. After eight years of use my old one is in pretty good condition and has only started to rust recently. Is there a good paint of protective coating I could put on the new dish to ensure it lasts as long as my old one?
