Motor and Spliter

[longhalkilo]

Well I did it this time,I screwed up my DG-280 motor.According to the manual on page 5 under "Hardware Reset by DiSEqE Motor". I disconnected the RG6 ,then press and hold both EAST/WEST buttons for 5 seconds and then reconnect RG6.The motor is still working properly ,but the LNB will show S but no Q. When I bypass the motor with a barrel connector I have S and Q on the reciever.
Now my question is can I use some sort of a high frequency power passing spliter . Between the reciecer and the motor on one side, and the other side to the LNB.Thank you in advacne for your input.

In my motor mod post, Pendragon recommended using a diplexer that passes on both ports.

Could be the cheap fix you are looking for!

BTW now might be the time to do a motor mod on your dg-280. Pendragon's post was the one that got me started on my sg6000 mod.

Thank you Putney.I see it is time for me to do some reading and thinking about a motor mod, and looking for parts.

Would a Perfect Vision Diplexers PVDP-2PP with DC power passing on 2 ports be a good choice.How would you connect it,LNB to 950-2400 mhz port and motor to 2-860 mhz port?
