I am a former Voom subscriber, and have decided to go back to E* since D* is not making a big push in the HD arena. I need advice in doing this. What I would like to do is connect my old E* 500 dish with my V* dish that is already mounted in the proper position to see the V* bird. My question is, what equipment will I need to do this, switches etc.. I am a novice at this, so any details you can give me will be appreciated. Also, any pitfalls you can warn me about will be appreciated as well.
The next situation is this: I originally wanted to purchase a 942 reciever, but have changed my mind since it won't be MPEG4 compatible. What I would like to do is purchase a standard HD reciever to hold me over, then when E* switches to MPEG4 I will purchase the latest and greatest HD-DVR. My question is: does anyone have any suggestions on what HD reciever I should get. I am looking for something fairly cheap that is reliable.
Thanks everyone for your help!!
