Hi mates, can I mine ETH and ETC at the same time with this miner? Thanks

Nope.

There is pool called miningpoolhub (https://miningpoolhub.com)
And there is an option to mine ETH or ETC depending of whats profitable at the moment!


THE POOL AUTOSWITCHES ETH AND ETC--

Nice to know, but ETH and ETC (and any other Dagger-Hashimoto coins) cannot be dual mined.  The DAG files differ in size and character.  The dual miner mines a memory intensive algo, and a compute intensive algo, and splits the load on the GPU so that it can be efficiently done.  Merge-mining and autoswitching are done poolside.  Merge-mining is not possible for Dagger-Hashimoto coins, because the DAG files differ, as stated above.

I just answered the same question in this thread two days ago.       --scryptr

Pitty is that I have to check for profitability my self and shotdown ETH +SIA Claymore and start ETC+SIA Claymore miner manually
I wanted to point this out! If the pool does it and give you 12020 port for this kind of mining.. so that miner does not have to switch anything..  but it just does not work with Claymore
