In other words, it isn't a way to have multiple satellite boxes in

a multiswitch.


Or a dual or quad output balun mounted on the dish. Each balun can feed
one receiver (sky+ has two receivers in one box hence needs two)


Of course. A dual or quad LNB can be used but it does require one
cable from dish to each receiver ( or with Sky+ box two cables).
The Loftbox can't combine them and split them out again. It could
take one, and add in terrestrial TV and VHF but the other would have
to be home run all the way from dish to receiver - i.e. total of two
cables.
