Yes correct, each port of the LNB needs a seperate cable, for a freesatpvr a dual lnb will do and you can get dual cables (i.e two cables moudled together (looks a bit like giant speaker cable except each side is a seperate co-ax)

It's a nice little system and good to see HD, but you could probably get something cheaper online.. Also remmeber that if you;re looking at european stations then UK might not always be in the right footprint and if possible a 0.9m or a 1.2m dish might be better.

Also if looking at eurosats then go for a system with DISECQ, that way a disecq motor can easily be added and you have a multi-sat system
