    Recommended Power inserters or workaround using dual C/KU feedhorn??

    ADVERTS 1
    I am wondering if any of you can recommend a decent power inserter to provide 18v to both legs on a Chapparal Bullseye 2 feedhorn???
    Or have you found that your receiver handles both legs at 18v with one not dropping to 13v?? I heard some receivers did not have that problem, or that it at least did not affect performance that much.. and I heard others talking that they are using as is without problems but I think it would be best to keep it all at 18v for top performance and not worrying about burning up expensive lnb's
    I see power inserters on the marketplace, but I'm sure some of them are crap and others not.
    I would appreciate any hands on info, or perhaps other suggestions, workarounds or drawings on a reliable way getting 18v at all 4 lnb's on the Bullseye 2 Feedhorn
    thanks, HB

    While I prefer the two threads above, here is one more converting a regular multiswitch to a powered one.

    It will take me another 10 years to get to the point you guys are at with "knowledge" but man, a little at a time... that's what it's all about..!! HB
