I have D* and basic cable (its free) running to my TVs and D* receivers through the same coax. It works fine. I had an installer put up a HD OTA antenna so I can get my locals in HD. The D* and cable still work, but the OTA signals do not come through.
The installer is guessing that the OTA antenna has a dual directional power source that isn't compatible with the cable signal. He suggests that I disconnect the cable. As much as I don't want to give props to cable, it is the only signal that is reliable in severe weather, and that's when I need a signal most.
Do any of the experts out there have any input?????
