Can I connect both a 9241 and a 9500 to a single antenna cable with a three way power feed switch

Re the title above, I have a dish with 4 port LNB, and 4 cables into the house, but in one room, with only a single cable, I want to connect both a 9500 (one coax connector) and a 9241 (two coax connectors). I used to use a 2 way splitter to connect the antenna cable to the two ports on the old 9241 (and it worked fine until it had a problem). Now I have the single cable connected to the 9500 and it works fine, but I want to get the repaired 9241 up and running. Would a three way splitter work, and does it need a 3-way power feed splitter? I hope someone can answer this! Thanks.

Hey there @JonPM43,
Welcome to the Bell Community 🙂
Using a three way splitter in this scenario may cause poor performance or signal loss.
You could try running an additional cable, or if possible replace the two way splitter you previously used.
Keep the Community posted on how everything turns out.

I have installed a 3way power feed switch onto a single LNB RG6cable, with Out1 going to the 9500, and Out2 and Out3 connecting to the old 9241. I now get al channels on the 9241, but only some channels (one satellite) on the 9500 even though a switch test says all 4 LNBs are good (green). Moving the leads around on the switch outputs does not help - just changes channels I can get.
