    Coolsat AC-3 Pass Thru ?

    I’ve search the archives on this topic and there seems to be some varying input on whether or not the Coolsat 4000 Pro passes thru to the S/PDIF port the AC-3 audio signal for the PBS channels on AMC 3. If this is possible, I could use some suggestions on a decoder to power 2 small external...
