OK I know these pics are bad but, what the heck is this thing. This was on a SWM dish. One cable from the dish and the other from what ever the other thing is into some type of splitter/diplexor.??? Then one line out. This was not one of my customers, but a few units down, so I was not able to see the inside setup. Any thoughts? Mabey an Off Air antenna?

Sirius satellite radio outside antenna.

I have one here since my studio is in the basement and can't get reception there.

Mine came with a diplexer/combiner that is supposed to work with Directv. I ran its own dedicated line so I never used the diplexer. I got it a couple of years ago so I'm not sure if it is compatible with a SWM lnb or not.

these were town homes and the builders installed one on every unit 30+, because they were all the same, stucco and spanish tile roofs. not sure where they got them, but im sure one of the retailers here would have them.
