Is my house equipped for Dish? (pic)

The installer will have to get a doube strand of cable from the dish to your home run. From there it's up to him to decide how he wants to do it. Probably the best thing to do would be to diplex it for the TV2 feeds. I know it sounds more complicated than it really is. The only thing YOU have to worry about is how your installer will get 2 lines to your home run from outside. The rest is up to him. It's not that hard.
 
That's what's been discussed in this thread.

Instead of a double strand to that location, he could use the single existing run and then one of the in-wall runs from an exterior wall.

They should have pulled 4 RG6's to the exterior (for the chance that D* would be used). If I was ever prewiring a house, I'd pull 5 wires (one for OTA, potentially) through the walls to an exterior j-box where a future dish would go. Then there's no cables on exterior walls either.
