Need some help - my present configuration as follows: 18" round D* dish with two rg6 cables from dish into my house. Inside the two RG6's cables connect into a 3 x 5 Zinwell multi-switch SAM 3402 - output from the 3 x 5 Zinwell four RG6 cables connect to two Hughes TIVO SD DVR's. NOTE: This is a SD only config and that is what I want to keep. Both DVR's have been upgrade to 180 hr capacity.
Problem - trees are starting to block the D* 18" setup - so I need to move the dish to a better locaton.
Have been looking into the Directv 18 X 20 Phase III 3-LNB with built-in multi-switch. I understand that this is "old" technology - I'm OK with that - not at all interested in HD! I found a dish for $30.00.
Question - please give me a detail description of configuration using the 18 X 20 Phase III dish.
NOTE: I would definitley prefer to just use my existing RG6 cables (two) as they will pretty much reach to the new location (will need to add approx. 20 feet) - I do not want to drill additional holes into my house if this can me avoided.
Thanks - NOTE: My two DVR's are not SWM compatable - too old !!
