    Can you output to 2 tvs? (with a DVR)

    why on earth would they do that when they can charge you 5 dollars a month for another dvr unit???? I beleive the DISH network has a receiver that comes with two remotes one IR and one RF, I just don't know if it has dual outputs or not...

    Hey were Electricians not Magicians... If nobody installed PVC pipes from the basement to the attic you might as well forget about snaking wires, Most houses have fireblocks installed....

    DirecTV Touts HD Ambitions

    I don't think you guys get it yet, there are only a handfull of people with HD televisions... if you wanna bitch about HD lite yell at your neighbors to buy a HD television, supply and demand go a long way... it's like trying to sell DVD's to people who own VCR's... not going to make much money...

    Another Grounding Question

    In the NEC, it requires the antenna to be grounded , could not find an exception to the antenna being installed indoors, If it were mine I would bond it to the dish if its close enough.... i'm sure someone will tell you to call your local inspector to see what your town requires....
