Question about adding another DVR

[coasterguy]

Hello,
I currently have a 625 dual tuner DVR attached to one TV. We own an older 510 that currently is not being used for anything. Is it possible to split the signal yet again and hook the 510 back up, essentially giving us 3 tuners on one TV. Yes, I am a bit of a TV junkie and really like recording on a DVR so we can zip through the commercials. Any help would be appreicaited.

Thank you

You'll have to run another line to the 510 it can't be "split". It will work though with a different TV input.

No, another line would have to be run from dish/switch to the 510. It is possible you have a DPP lnb and the splitter you think you have is actually a seperator. The seperator only works with DPP lnb's/switches and dual tuner receivers only.
