That is correct. The reason for a Dual LNB is to get HPol(freeview) and
VPol(Sky) Signals at the same time.

Sky sent a fax to some of the larger installers to warn them of a switch
to HPol at the end of May, but that might get delayed.

Meanwhile once you have an LNB set to a Polarity you can get all signals
and aren't restricted to an LNB per transponder or channel.

We can now ship myPVR with a Skystar2 unit pre-installed and pre-configur=
ed.
