Just upgraded to a DISH 1000, VIP 722 system with dual TVs connected (one HDTV). I've also got a 301 on another TV. I was able to split SD TV 2 into a few mirrors for SD TVs that won't need separate tuners. Can I also split TV 1 into some SD mirrors? I've tried a few different splitting combinations and haven't had much luck yet (see attachment--apologies for the scribbling). What I'd like to do is mirror TV 1 into the SD TV that is currently hooked up to the 301 (and perhaps other TVs), and move that 301 box to another TV in a different location. Currently, I've got everything running through existing cable wired through the house, and I'd like to keep it that way (so the option of running component cables from the 722 directly to TV3 is a last resort). Any thoughts?

Yes!!, just turn on the Modulated output for TV 1 (Menu 6-1-5 will bring you to the screen you need) and set a channel number for it, then add the TV you want into your splitter. Since both the TV1 and TV2 modulated outputs go through the home distribution port, all TVs will have access to both the TV1 mirror and the TV2 Mirror.
 
In fact I have both TV1 and TV2 of all my 722's distributed throughout the house. Just follow Agonizing Fury's instructions.
 
Aha...thanks for the quick tip!

if you are going to mirror tv1 around the house, ya might wanna get a hold of another 6.3 UHF remote for that for tv1 on the 722 so that you could carry it around the house and be able to change channels from anywhere.
 

Odd Problem

DVR, timers, package change
