| DreamBox DM 500S Specifications: DreamBox 500Si is the first Linux based DVB Receiver to enter the mass market. The DM 500S receiver runs on open-source software developed by hundreds of developers around the world and is free to use. This is the ultimate sat machine. If you're looking for a VERY powerful unit, and something to have fun on, then the Dream box 500S is for you.
The Dreambox 500S is by far the best FTA receiver in the market. Affordable in comparison to the DM7000 but with all the fixings. This FTA box is in a class of it's own. Imagine full EPG functionality for all networks!!!!! No other FTA receiver can offer you that!
You can connect up to 4 different LNBs to a 4-way switch and one output to the receiver. The Dreambox 500 will understand each individual LNB signal, and download all the channels for that satellite. For instance, if one LNB were pointing as Dish Network, you would set up LNB 1 to download all 300 DishNet stations (PPV, sports, everything). This would populate channels 1 - 300 on the system.
If LNB 2 were pointing at another satellite company, you would then be able to set up LNB 2 to download channels 301 - 600. This can continue for up to 4 different satellite signals. Potentially, with enough dishes, you could flip from channels 1 - 1200, without missing any stations!!
