I am building a new house and have a few questions about installing Dish Network. I am planning on prewiring the home before the installers arrive.
I am going to get the package that has locals on Sat @ 105. What satellites does dish normally pick up 110 & 119 ? With the local channel this should be a Superdish. Will the installers use a SW 34 ? I might want expand later and add another Switch for more receivers.
I am going to run RG 6 to all the locations in the house. I know that dual tuner receivers need 2 feeds back to the switch, all my boxes for the TV outlets have conduit down through the floor into the basement (unfinished). Can I use a diplexer to back feed to the tv set in the other room on one of the sat coaxes, or is it better to run 3 coaxes to the dual tuner boxes. Is there a disadvantage to using a diplexer ?
I am planning on running all RG-6 coaxes in the house to a center distribution panel which will be a 19" rack mount blank with F barrels bolted thru it. This should make moving TVs and receivers around much easier. Is there a problem with all of the coaxes being grounded together or is it better to have isolated grounds ?
Great forum
