Listening two band independently

Good evening,
I have been using a 6400M for a few days. I cannot find in the manual how to listen with the Maestro to a band on receiver A with antenna 1 and listen to an another band with receiver B with antenna 2 independently.
Please tell me if it is possible or not directly on the Maestro.
Best regards, 73 to all and thanks for reply.
Francis

    Dear Francis, you have got the answer in Facebook. The 6400 only have one SCU, only one antenna at a time. You need a 6600 or the 6700 with two SCU to listen to two antennas at the same time.

    Hi Francis, the 6400 can listen to two frequencies on any bands simultaneously, but can only listen on one antenna at a time. This is because the 6400 only has one Spectral Capture Unit (SCU). The 6600 and 6700 have two SCUs, so they can listen to two antennas at the same time.

    Hello, and thank you all for your answers and the time spent doing this.
    Indeed I am very disappointed because it is well stipulated on the advertisement for this device: "Its two receivers can be placed simultaneously on any band" It is well specified two receivers on the advertisement not? It is therefore false advertising and a scam. I also have a TS-990S which has 2 separate receivers, an IC-7610 as well, and an FTDX101MP as well. So I bought a 6400M to compare with the other transceivers and am therefore extremely disappointed because I like when with a receiver I decode FT8 to be able to listen on another band in CW or on the phone on another receiving antenna.
    So really very disappointed with this device because it does not keep what is promised.
    So thank you all for your insightful answers, take care of yourself and your families, 73 qro,
    Francis
