    Quick question on the Saorview plus that has a twin tuner.

    Does this need two cables from the aerial or can the signal be split from the same cable?

    It can be split. There's only 1 aerial connection, & it's split internally.

    Grand thanks, I was wondering whether it was like the Sky that needs the two seperate cables from the LNB.

    The satellite channels occupy a greater bandwidth than terrestrial, & are split across horizontal & vertical polarity (separate aerial probes in the LNB feed) &, for all but recent 'full band capture' receivers, an initial tuning stage in the LNB too.

    Terrestrial transmissions are all carried on a single polarity & all receivers can handle the full bandwidth.
