OTHER Need recommendation on multi-receiver switch

[comfortably_numb]

Would like to purchase a switch to select between 3 different FTA receivers. Need something with good isolation. A simple A/B/C switch seems to have "leakage." Any suggestions?

Me too. I want one.

Ordered this as a temporary solution. Should split the LNB signal to all 3 receivers. Power pass on just a single output. One receiver will be the "master" and provide LNB power and blind scan capability. The "slave" receivers will be able to access the H or V polarity based on what the "master" is tuned to.

Meaning "crosstalk", as with 3 LNBs to one receiver?
But what kind of leakage would there be, from where to where, with 3 receivers to one LNB? I'm not sure.

Regarding your temporary solution: you explicitly want a 'master' receiver, that is always ON, for the other receivers to function?
There are also splitters with 4 diodes, giving control to the receiver with (the highest) voltage. And sat priority switches (master-slave switches), but they only come in 2/1 version.
But maybe you already know that.

1 coax from the dish that can fan out to 3 receivers?

Correct.

Would this one be more appropriate?
