One other point on using a single EAS Encoder for two stations.  It is
ONLY allowed if they are co-owned.  For instance LMA stations at the
same location cannot share one EAS box according to FCC Rules Part 11.  

Edwin: If I understand your question correctly, it is best to avoid
adapting old-style EAS equipment.  Even IF one adaptor could feed two
decoders.  Replace it with a CAP-Compliant Encoder.  

Any station or cable company in Nebraska should contact me immediately
for help in purchasing a new CAP Encoder.

Edwin -

You can purchase a multi-station device for the new Sage - and use one
box 
for both stations.   Provided they are in the same local EAS area so
that 
their input and output coding can be the same etc.
