View Full Version : Sharing Coax ?

I currently have Directv and now seriously considering getting Dish Network.

I would like to possibly keep my Directv, add Dish Network and "share" the 4 coaxes coming from the dish into my prewired home. Is there anyway to do this ?

I would only turn the power on to one receiver at a time...never a reason for both being on.

If this is possible, please tell me what I would need.

Thanks in advance for any members help.

there is a way that you can share dishes for both systems ... but you can not share wiring as for as i know ...

im sure that you may be able to do it some way with some complex switching ...but it would be very costly as well
