RF signal splitting

I am in need of some technical advice, I have a 622 in one room and a 222 in a second, I want to modulate room 2 from both receivers to other televisions in the house. I also would like to watch the 622 on the television with the 222 installed.
I only have one coax run throughout the house. Can I modulate and receive signals on the same coax? And if I need to boost signal from the two receivers, is that possible?

Thanks

not sure what your asking but I think the answer your looking for is yes you can send both tv #2's on the same cable,you just have to set the modulators on two different channels so they dont interfere with one another

yes, using diplexers and splitters. if you wanted to get technical with it, you could set up all tvs to be able to view any tuner you want on different channels.
a note though, i believe if you back feed the tv1 of the 622 to the tv1 of the 222 you wont be looking at a hi-def picture cause you'll be using coax for the feed.
you can split the line (with splitters) at any point on the uhf/vhf line, but never the line in between the diplexers, if that makes sense. if you use a splitter backwards and run the ufh/vhf from both tuners into a splitter, you have then combined the backfeeds, and both will show on different channels, as long as your receivers are modulated to output on different channels. for instance if your setup is already diplexed, you can either split from the uhf/vhf line behind the receiver or at the other diplexer location for that feed (i.e. basement) wehichever is more convenient to run cable from. mirroring the tv 1 feed will get a little more complicated, and you'll be viewing in standard def most likely.
also if you are adding mirror tvs, you have to make sure the tv's you are hooking up are set to receive signal on the proper channel. if your 222 tv 2 is on chan 60, then all tv's copied from that have to be on ch 60 air to receive that picture. you can set you 622 to 50 air or whatever and and watch that tuner on 50 air on the same tvs, if you have combined the backfeeds.
um...hope that makes sense.

The attached diagram may help. However, it only shows one receiver. Repeat this setup for the second receiver. Next, join the 2 agile modulator feeds into a 2-way splitter (to what is normally the 2 outs) and connect the in with a short cable to the in of the 4-way (yours may be 2-way, 3-way, ect.) splitter pictured in the diagram. With this setup all remote TV2's will have access to all modulated channels-TV1 and TV2 of both receivers. As mentioned in an earlier post, modulated TV1 signals are SD. The only way to get the TV1 HD from the 622 to the 222 TV1 is a direct connect via HDMI or Component.

Hope this helps.

Washington Post

SpaceX has held talks with Boost's parent company EchoStar in recent months about launching its own signature wireless service through a deal with the company, according to two people familiar with the negotiations.
Musk, the SpaceX CEO, has discussed the deal personally, meeting with EchoStar chairman Charlie Ergen last month, according to the people. The potential deal may result in SpaceX acquiring Boost Mobile or SpaceX gaining access to its network, which it leases from AT&T and T-Mobile US, the people said.
Access to those lease agreements would be a coup for SpaceX. The back door would allow Musk to make a play for a U.S. wireless market that equity research firm MoffettNathanson estimates is worth $235 billion. But the proposed service may need consent from those carriers for the service to actually launch, the people said.

Again, why would Musk want a TV Service, specially one that is losing over a million subscribers a year.

Phone service…maybe, but not TV.

Again, if so, why would he want Dish/Sling of all the providers?

He could deliver anything without actually owning, for example, watching the Lions game in my Tesla Y on it's screen via the YT app, while on the way to my future in-laws on Sunday.

Hate to say this no one is ordering Satellite TV. Both DISH and Direct no new customers.
After 25 years with centurylink DSL 80 speed i changed to Xfinity 300 speed for $50 wow lightning fast for streaming. Still have DISH 27 years with them. Americas 250 package for $103. What you think of superbox or vseebox for streaming is it legal?
Still dish is easy to operate and change channels. What will Charlie Ergen do with new super satellites with loosing customers with satellites and boost?

Comcast called fiber pricing "irrational" because the ROI is over three years. What is irrational to me is Comcast internet is based on lines they put in the ground decades ago at this point, for the most part. Is copper that much more expensive to maintain?

yes. even copper lines in a house degrade over 70 years, I doubt coax would last that long. Fiber Optic on the isp side will last over 70 years with very dedgration

Charter lost 77,000 TV subscribers, the bigger news, it lost 233,000 broadband subscribers.

You would believe both companies would of learned from what happened with their TV services, which was ignore that cord cutting was a thing, allowed competition ( streaming) to get a foothold in the industry.

Now, in today's world, there are more households in the United States without a paid live TV than those with.

Both companies charge too much, delayed upgrades, all because they believed no one would leave them, only game in town, competition started with the 5G services, than Fiber, enough said, Cord Cutting 2.0 is here.

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....
