    Triple LNB Question?

    I have TIVO, and a standard receiver currently from a dual-lnb dish. 2 cables into a multiswitch. It sounds like for the triple-lnb dish you can't run from the on-dish multiswitch to another switch as it's designed to go from the dish directly to the receiver. What does a cascadable...

    D* HD Install

    Does the OTA signal get passed thru on these cables also? I was hoping to avoid more cable running into my unit, but it sounds like there is no way to avoid it. Mark

    I currently have D* with TIVO and one additional receiver. I am getting the HD recevier and OTA from D* installed on Friday. I currently have the 2 cables from the dish into a multiplexer and then out to the receivers. I was told that for the new mutli-satellite dish that all 4 cables from...
