Combining Satellite TV Out with Antenna Signal

[utcheme]

Is there a way to combine an TV Output from a Dish receiver and a HD antenna signal onto one wire and split it again at the other end? I am trying to get off air local HD Channels and Dish on the same TV but I have only one wire to the TV and the receiver is away from the TV.

What receiver do you have? If you have a 622 or a 722 you can plug the OTA antenna into the receiver and see the OTA channels through the Dish receiver.

It really does not amter if the signals are HD digital or Analog. Yes you can take the SD output from any source and combine it with an antenna. You have to make sure that you are sending the signal out ona frequency that is not used for OTA in your area. A google search ora search of these forums will show you several ways to do this.

A splitter in reverse is a combiner too.

What Andrewski said. Use a splitter (NOT diplexer) in reverse. One coax from your receiver's TV2 output the other coax from your antenna into the splitter, then one coax to your TV. You may have to experiment with your modulated channel on TV2. Select the lowest channel # you can with out a OTA channel next to it. Menu-6-1-5. Yer welcome. Good luck.
