Hi. I should have been more specific. I did read the manual, but I was looking for a site that explains the theory behind how the signal gets from the dish and then to the receiver and to all the connected devices, and how they all interact with one another. That includes diplexers...

Actually I was talking about the dish network equipment setup and connections, etc. Do you know of a site that explains all this with diagrams? Well I guess I could feed the upstairs amp from the outputs on TV2, but I was hoping for a better connection. Thanks.

Well. obviously I am in the process of learning how the receiver, cables and dish all work together. Later I will climb onto the roof and see how everything is connected up there. Is there a site (or link) where I could see how all the connections work? Thanks

Well, the coax to TV2 is definitely not coming from the 722. I can see that it comes off the Sat along the roof to the room TV2 is in. One coax goes from the dish to TV2. Two coaxials go from the dish to a separator and then to the 722 via the connection I mentioned in my first post. (Later I...

Well, coming into the 722 downstairs there is a coax from the dish and that connects to a diplexer. The output from the diplexer feeds to the home distribution input and to a separator. The separator connects to the TV1 and TV2 inputs. But upstairs I have a separate coax that feeds from the...

Hi, Currently I have a home theater set up in the living room and an SD connection upstairs via the 722. The audio from the upstairs TV, even when fed to a receiver, is not nearly as good as when it is fed directly to the receiver from the 722. Because upstairs I have only the coax from the...

Hi, Will I notice a difference in PQ if I run new cable instead of using 5 year old cable? (That is, use the existing cable which was put up 5 years ago, or replace it with new cable?) Thanks

Hi, I currently have one cable with a diplexer going to the 722. I have a good quality HDTV connected to the 722. My question is would I get a noticeably better PQ if there were two separate cables going to the 722? Thanks.

Problem Fixed... The problem was that there are two coaxial cables coming in for two separate receivers off of one dish. One is dual and the other is straight from the dish to the receiver and is only for a single TV. The coaxial cables leading into the two receivers were switched during a...

Yes, I have set it up according to the instructions in the 722 manual with regards to air/channels and cable/channels and tried all the suggested possiblilities. I also have the TV tuned to the correct channels and settings which correspond to the receiver settings, but only get snow. Anyone...

I may be mistaken, but it doesn't seem as though you read my original post. It is set to air and channel 60 and I have tried cable and 73-74-75 also. Forgive me if you are referring to something else. Thanks.

Hi, I just had a 722 installed and intiallly the installer had some problems getting a picture on TV2. Eventually he got it working. I used it briefly just to test it out and it seemed to be working. Now it is only a few days after the install and I am only getting snow on TV2. I have it set...
