    Crystal Ball, Dec 2004

    In short, I am re-evaluating my TV Content Reception options, and I need your help. I would like to compile a generally-accepted list of what each vendor does well or poorly, sticking with the majority, with the understanding that someone will always be on both sides of the fence. AND, I...

    Zenith Compression Coax Connectors & Tool

    Similar, but better experience I, too, went to Lowe's and bought the cable and connectors. My first also stripped, although I (admittedly) cranked it down too tightly. My second I did not, and have used repeatedly with great (albeit slow, and painful) success. However, I would have...

    Need Help with DishPro and OTA Antenna Connections!!!

    DP34 *DOES NOT* Pass OTA frequencies, but diplexing does not hurt 921. Yesterday, I connected my Terk TV42 to both my 110 and 119 DishPro lines, which diplexed the signal onto both cables running to my SW34/DP34 switch.

    Need Help with DishPro and OTA Antenna Connections!!!

    Thanks...I had found that site, and I believe it to be imminently helpful. Unfortunately they don't really discuss whether/how OTA is passed through various Dish switches, which is the core of the issue. If I were a D* subscriber, I could select from a wide variety of multiswitches that...

    Need Help with DishPro and OTA Antenna Connections!!!

    Reiterated request for OTA/DishPro assistance I currently have a Dish 6000. Have had for 3 years, waiting for DVR technology. Given my Ranch Style home and 56" HD Projection TV at the center thereof, I could not rationalize a second STB. However, my wife has finally convinced me of this...
