Dish 500 Help Needed

[rdoody]

Hi Folks,

This is my first post here, so hello to everyone.
I'm hoping someone can help answer a question for me.

I have a Dish 500 system with the integrated switches.
The 2 coax lines go directly to my 2 recievers.
What I wish to do is to merge my Antenna signal onto both
satelitte feeds and use a diplexor at the reciever to connect.
What HW do I need to combine the one antenna feed with the 2 sattelite feeds?

Any help wiuld be appreciated?

Rob

A two way splitter on the TV antenna line fed to 2 diplexers, the lines from the dish fed to each diplexer. At the TV set you will need 2 diplexers to split the combined signals out.

Thanks Boba,

Can you recommend a decent UHF/VHF amplifier for the antenna and the
satellite feeds? I'm assuming my signal will degrade some when I split it and
the coax runs are long.

Thanks,

Rob
