    Yes if a slot is open it is easy, all you do is go on the roof and take off the pointer and see if there is an open connector and if there is you just put the wire on.

      No, If JJ's neighbor had a dual LNB it could be done that way. However the picture quality would be poor though, because of the amount of cable your using via that method. You could always use a muti-switch as well, but I highly doubt he went that route at all based on what he posted.

      I have to assume people that have the cable internet service spliced into that connection, and are stealing cable TV right now though.

        I thought it is the reciever that gets the programming information not the LMB... You can share dishes and have differant programming information in your recievers...

          I just assumed that the coach had a card and receiver, and was stealing the signal from his neighbor.

              Maybe he lost the money he had set a side to buy a dish.

                  I have my bill taken directly out of my checking account each month. I don't even look at my bill. I get just about every sports package they offer (except soccer and the WNBA) so I'm always paying for the different packages since they split them up into several payments. I bet I pay an average of $175 a month. I have two HD TV's and I love watching the sports. I don't subscribe to any movie channels except for when the Soprano's is on.

                      Thanks Bigboydan
                      That looks intersting. I may have to look into that. Would be nice to take out to my hot tub. I also read on that link that they are going to be offering many more HD channels later this year. That is what I have been waiting for.

                                As long as your in the DTV satellite range you can watch it in your home coach. That range exceeds up in Canada down to the Bahamas.

                                    If I had to guess, $700-800 range.

                                      thats probably about right, because Thats basically what they went for when they first came out way back in the early 90's.

                                              It's similar technology to the XM and Sirus radio coach, only it's in TV form.

                                                Danny you better be right or you will be hearing from me.

                                                XM much easier to get inside a house vs Sirius

                                                  Don't me coach.

                                                  Weather it be a card or a receiver, all there new products they come out with has flaws in them.
