Hello all, and thanks for creating and maintaining such a valuable knowledge base.

Amusing History:
I live in an apartment building, and was told I cannot install dish. Being the type that loves to overcome any and every challenge, I kept cross questioning the management as to why, until they said that I could not make holes in any exterior walls for installation. I took that as their "written in stone" rule, created a workaround, bought a few shelf arms and sheet metal from Home depot, and made holes on the air conditioner unit's casing(thats not an exterior wall, ), created a shelf, installed the dish, and lived happily ever after.

As usual, this isn't a movie and the story doesn't end here. This was just one dish, on my window, facing 61.5 so I could only get international channels. Then after discussions with a neighbor who lives on the diagonally opposite end of the building and facing 110/119, I convinced him to install the dish 500 on his ac unit. Now, I needed a feed from his dish, and he from mine. We somehow managed to tip the super to help us run 2 hidden cables in the building shafts, and the length was 500 feet each since we're on different floors and on opposite ends of the building. After days of hidden work, we managed to accomplish this. We have our own accounts, but we share the dishes.

The Present dilemma:
His window has a legacy twin 500, and I have a 300 dish with legacy dual lnb. One cable carries 110/119 from the twin to my place, and the other cable carries the 61.5 from mine to his place. We both have SW21 switches in each apartment combining the 2 feeds. I have a DishPro 811, and my neighbor has a DishPro 301 Now I have decided to add a second receiver to my account for my bedroom. Is there a way for me to add a second receiver in my apartment, without having to run a third cable from my place to his? I am willing to change any and every switch, and LNB's if necessary, but running additional cable will be next to impossible.
Ideas?? Comments?? Snide remarks??
All appreciated. Thanks.
