Thank you Jimbo for the such a simple, easy solution. Can't believe I didn't think of it! Took the ole rabbit ears Radio Shack antenna from our kitchen TV which isn't hooked up to Satellite, and connected it to the HDTV. Changed the appropriate input on the TV, then did a channel scan for...

OK, I just hooked up Rabbit ears to my antenna input on my HD TV. I'm only getting Channel 6 (Crystal clear). What others should I try? I'll try the 99's or 103's as well.

Hi All! I'm from greater Philly and we got hit with 18 inches of snow yesterday. My HD dish is out, but of course DirecTV can't get out here till Tuesday. Anything I can do? I was on my roof, and the dish does not have accumulated snow. The LNBs are also covered with a white cap, and I...

I'll add this tidbit: I do hear of Satellite users able to split one LNB line. One of my work colleagues says he does so with a Dish Network satellite. It is suggested that I'm simply getting degradation of signal when two recievers are connected to the one line. DirecTV also indicates that I...

I really wish I could split one cable. If I really need to use that second LNB, I'll have to drill another hole in my bedroom window, and rethread everything. So what I'm hearing is it is impossible to split one LNB cable to two different recievers and that I really need to connect the second...

Hi Everybody: I have a standard def DTV dual LNB dish. One LNB coax goes into a Hughes receiver in my bedroom. The other LNB coax goes into my house, but is currently not connected to any receiver (just hangs in the basement ceiling) I want to connect a second receiver to the LNB coax that...
