I goosed a 2 Port DiSEqC switch yesterday whilst augmenting my house-wide distribution system to include DTT by the use of a UHF Splitter and a couple of Sat/TV Combiner/Splitters.
Did a test run in the dry as it were, in a room where the one pre-existing cable from the Yagi ran alongside a Satellite feed. All worked.
When the hail stopped long enough, I then went out to fit them in their intended place in a sheltered spot near one of my DiSEqC switches.
Having failed to disconnect power...
