Issue with Direct TV Install

[D.McGowan]

Ok guys this makes the second time I have came across this problem. I am working with a appment were there is only one line ran into each room. Now my question is, hot to mirror a SD reciver to the second room with only one wire to each room. Can a diplexer be used or can it work or will it work or am I just dead in the water with the mirror.

The last job like this I just talked the customer into a second reciver used a swm dish with power inserter and used a 2 way splitter to the 2 sd recivers. But I have a lady this time that will not pay for the extra charge a month for the second tv so any help here would be greatful.

Thanks

You can use an rf modulator to use a run of coax to the second tv. If she has an old vcr lying around, you can use it as a modulator.

I think you can diplex the back feed as long as they do not use whole-home DVR (MRV).

Whole-home dvr uses the same bandwidth as OTA so you can't diplex if they use MRV.

There is actually a swm diplexer.

I haven't used one, but they do exist

They do exist but not really recommend but yes, it would serve the purpose
