Does the TN ANT. have go in multiswitch?

If I did not have to run the tv antenna into the multiswitch, it would makes installation alot easier. Does it have to run through it? Right now I have it split off and in is running into my living room reciever and my bedroom reciver. I only need the multiswitch for the DVR in the bedroom.

Also, do I need a diplexer? Not sure what it is but see alot of people use them.

The OTA feed to your dvr can go straight from the antenna to the dvr. It does not have to feed into the multiswitch, and you don't need a diplexer.

In fact, once D* is using the new sats, you will not be able to use a diplexer. You are better off without it.

Besides what has already been said, using a diplexer will hurt your signal strengths, you're better off doing a direct run, as suggested above.
