i have a question about incoming coax cables to my 722 receiver. where the receiver is located, i have two coax cables - one is for an OTA which runs directly to the OTA module on the receiver and the other is the satellite feed to a triplexer (which takes the TV2 signal out). i have an option to add another set top box to the same TV that came with my internet that has cheap HBO, but don't have an option to run another coax cable there.
i had a thought about combining the OTA and satellite feed to a diplexer first and then splitting it with another diplexer to go to the OTA module and triplexer. that would free up the other coax cable for the HBO set top box. i'm not sure if diplexers and triplexers would work together on the same cable.
is this an option or is there any other way to get three feeds (OTA, satellite & HBO cable) on two coax cables? i guess the option to combine the OTA and HBO line would exist as well???
thanks for any assistance!
