I'm TV 2 using a dual receiver with dish as my cable provider. the coaxial port broke on my flat-screen TV. Will this work using a/v cords ?

Yes, thats the way I hooked mine up. You just need to change the "input mode" on the TV to reflect the change in the source of the signal.

If I understand your intended use, I'd say no. This isn't a tuner - it's basically the opposite of a tuner and creates (modulates) a cable channel of your choice containing the input source audio/composite video. For example you could attach a composite video camera to this modulator, hook this modulator output up to the coax cable running through your house and choose a channel number on the modulator. Then you could tune in that channel on any other TV hooked up to the coax cable elsewhere in your house and view the camera output.

Joann, the receiving unit must be plugged into your TV using the two audio and one video jacks (red and white for audio and yellow for video). If your "standard tv" only has the coax input (the one used to screw in the cable or antenna wire) then this will not work without also purchasing a converter. If your TV has the red, white and yellow input jacks, this will work.

I don't have Dish and I only use this with my Xbox. However, my thoughts would be that if the VIP has an Ethernet port then this should work. All this is doing is using your home wiring to access to the Internet.

Hi Steve: The regular coax (RG-59) will probably work for short runs like in your trailer although DirecTV calls for RG-6. You will need an LNB and a DirecTV receiver and LNB in order to receive satellite signals from this dish. They are available with HD and DVR capability. Dont forget the LNB. DH

Yes, it worked great, I have an 82in Mitsubishi TV with a Coaxial and my Sony home theather system have an Optical input. This product worked GREAT, before I found this product I tried everything to connect the two and I keep coming up with an analog signal. This is the only product I could find that would work and give me the Digital signal that I needed for the surround sound amp. I hope one day the TV world and the Surround sound world would get on the same page, but most TVs come with Coaxial out and the new Surround Amps require and Optical input. THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT!!!

Sherry a friend of mine mounted this antenna directly to his satellite pole, after removing the dish. You can use the satellite coax , but you might have to remove some of the splitter boxes used by satellite.

To be totally honest i don't know if that application is possible. I'm using it to mix the seperate hdtv channels of two seperate directional antennas. I'm not sure if there would be any interferance between the over the air feed and the catv feed. You might look for a coaxial switch simular to the ones used with video game systems. Good luck

To be honest I think you will have to try it or call the company about your location. By the way, I am happy with the product, I install in the attic of my house run coax cable to both of my TV.

It should work with coaxial cable. Not sure with flat 2 wire input. Any unused ports need a termination cap to reduce signal loses.

I use this splitter for my Direct TV Dish and it work fine, as the exiting cable tv splitter did not.

You can not just hook it up and expect it to work you have to use a bias port system to put dc on the coax to run the lmb on the dish. You need to search google for someone that has done it already. I have not done it yet and do not know all the problems you will have. Good luck.

According to the specs and from what Dish installer told me, the answer is yes. The frequency range of the two signals are far apart and so combining the two feeds into a single cable and then splitting them out at the receiver end should work. I spent a lot of time investigating before purchasing, but then I ended up wiring my system differently after buying these, so cannot speak from experience.

Anymore, it's not a bad idea. RG6 is for digital cable and satellite, RG59 for analog. Any more, TVs, cable, satellite, DVD players, etc. are all digital. BTW, in my RV, I did not change out the installed cable lines, and even on the secondary line in the back room, it works fine, as long as I have the amplifier on in the wall plate. I'm not sure what cable was installed, though. You might try it first, before replacing the lines. I'm no techy, but I found the info on the cables online. Just used "rg59 vs rg6 coaxial cable" in search.

Sort of...but you have to use the pair. Your Dish receiver will have a coaxial input (F-connector) for each input, SAT and VHF/Antenna. Simply connect the satellite coax to the SAT side and the antenna to the VHF side. At the other end, where your receiver is, connect a short cable from each to the appropriate F-connector in the back of the Dish box. Hopefully that is what you are wanting to do. Good luck!

Well, I just ordered a coaxil cable two-way splitter (listen to the techie here, lol!) The guy at Best Buy told me to somehow get the antenna hooked into the recorder/player AND the tv. He said we didn't need that channel 3. Wish me luck. I just may have something. I'll let you know! - Linda

But you should be able to use a/v or hdmi directly from dual receive to TV. You should not need this device.
