this is how different LNBs are switched in single antenna, no matter you have a single antenna or two antennas the switching is done by two different level of DC voltages applied on the line by the receiver. normally 4 LNB input switches are handled by commercially available receivers.

I already have the circuit for the remote I just need a way to switch, this thing is over $30, I don't understand why the manual switch is under $3. So much difference just for the remote?
Lets just use:
$1.50 for 3 F connectors
$5.00 for metal case
$8.00 for relay
$3.00 for perf board (might not be needed)
$6.00 for 5V wall wart
$0.50 for DC in jack
$0.50 for two back EMF suppression diodes
$1.00 for two push buttons
Time to put it together

Now make it automatic: Detect significant current for each system draw and pulse appropriate relay. Now that makes it useful.
