Already have 1 DirectTV dish supporting two receivers (2 jacks). Want to move 1 receiver to another room, but have to install new jack. DirectTV wants to charge me $70 to do it, but I'm pretty handy and want to save the cash.
What's the best way to install a new jack that will support the moved receiver?
Preferably, I would like to keep the coax connected in the abandoned location in case I want to sell the house and the buyer wants Cable/Satellite in that room, so just pulling it up through the attic and dropping it down the new wall isn't an option.
It looks like the 2 coax cables from the dish go straight into the exterior wall and up to the attic. Is there a satellite homerun of some sort that I can come off of, or do you think the satellite tech just spliced into the prewired cable drop that was already there?
Thanks in advance.
