    8 ports on multiswitch..need 9

    Your two options are 1) cascading multiswitches or 2) splitting the LNB output before it goes to the switch. Personally, I prefer the splitter route.

    Another Grounding Question

    I have my dish outside (~15 ft from the house) and my OTA antenna in the attic. Thanks to the folks here (i.e. Doc), I have followed the recommendations at mikeholt.com and my dish is now properly grounded with the house ground. However, can anyone tell me if the OTA antenna in my attic...

    How would this be wired? Can you backfeed with D* on same cable?

    Unfortunately, you will need a separate coax run for each tuner that you want to use in the DVR. (Unless of course you want to record the same thing on both tuners.) :(

    95W Problem

    Hmmm...it looks like I need to clarify things, since my original post may not have been clear. 1) I have *no* problem locking onto 95W using my Traxis 3500. 2) I also have no problem finding 101W using the DirecTV (D10-300) box, with the dish in the same position as when the Traxis locks...

    95W Problem

    Background: DirecTV International package (101W and 95W) 36" Round Dish 2 LNBs (One is a standard "FTA" LNB pointing to 95W, the other is the dual 13V/18V DirecTV LNB pointing to 101). One Receiver: D10-300 Zinwell 6x8 multiswitch. (FTA LNB is in Flexport #1.) Problem...
