The short clarification is that the current version of the Ryde cannot switch tuner inputs whilst it is scanning different frequencies, even if those frequencies are in different "amateur bands".
The long clarification follows:
- Each Ryde "Band" has a defined name, Local Oscillator offset, LNB Voltage (if fitted), Tuner Input, and GPIO band setting.
- Each Ryde "Preset" has a defined name, "Ryde band", frequency or scanning frequencies (max 4) and SR or scanning SRs (max 4).
The simple solution for Ryde repeater receivers is to use a frequency dependent combiner (similar to what used to be used to combine Band 2 and Band 4 broadcast signals), and feed 2 or more bands into one tuner input.
