Just wanted to post back with an update. This set up works perfectly. Both HDMI and Component are output at the same time on my HR20. 35 foot HDMI run works great too. Thanks everyone!

Awesome, thanks for the replies everyone! I'll post back what I end up with. :up

My mistake, it's actually an HR20. Another thing I just thought of, after doing a search on here, maybe I should just hook the close TV up with component and run HDMI to the distant TV. That would save me the cost of the splitter. Does anyone know if the HR20 outputs on the component and HDMI...

Quick question. Is anyone using an HDMI splitter and watching Direct in 2 rooms via that way? I will never be watching both at the same time, I assume that wouldn't work anyway. I have tested my remote and the HR21 picks the signals up just fine from the other room, only 1 wall between them...

Give me an example..... This Terk is proven and for the distance I am out from the broadcast towers, it's perfect (about 42 miles). I "one-clicked" on Amazon and it was shipped to my door for free. Showed up 3 days later.....:up

I believe PBS could be included in that list as well. ;)

This is exactly what I want to do. Thanks for the replies! :up Oh, and I'm hoping to get an HR22. Will the OTA plug into that then show up on my guide? How will I watch OTA when my Directv goes out?

Thanks for the responses! I'm upgrading from a 25 year old VHF only to a Terk HDtv Amplified Antenna. Link - Amazon.com: Terk HDtv Antenna Amplified: Electronics Sounds like I should upgrade to RG6, especially since it's amplified?

I agree completely. Is should be much easier!

Palin should've been Miss Alaska! :D

This is very interesting. Will have to see how it plays out!

Is this easy to do? Or do I need to hook it directly to my tv? Can I DVR OTA locals? Will the Directv installation guy help me out? Thanks!

Hi, I'm replacing my current antenna with an HD antenna. It currently has old RG5 along the entire run. Do I need RG6 or will RG5 work? It's about 80 feet.

Hey, just signed up another customer and got the following deals. Went with the Choice Extra HD package.... 2 HD-DVRs - $99 each $50 for a referral $18 off new customer discount for 12 months 6 months free showtime Go Green discount Free shipping & handling, install, slimline dish, etc… $10...

mdanderson, I called the AAA number and they had no problem giving me the referral discount as well. I would imagine that the $50 referral discount depends on the CSR. In my case, I get $10/month off during months 13-17. Kind of weird but I guess that will be nice for a discount down the road.
