Ok, here are diagrams of the setup that didn't work (receiver squealed and got hot) and the current setup. The "Splitter" was just a duplicate diplexer put in backward (combined connected to the cable that was the output of the other diplexer) I tested it with both the tv and OTA connector of...

Thanks for the responses. It looks like I have to run the check switch a couple times when things change to get the receiver and antenna control system to sync up. I put in a diplexer to put the OTA and Dish signal on the single cable, and that works. When I hooked up a second diplexer as a...

I've attached diagrams of our current and my proposed setup. Other then having to duplicate the OTA splitting function of the destacker in order to allow for source switching (kvh or standard dish) I think this is as good as I can make it. If I could get comments and suggestions I would...

Thanks JohnL, That's not what I was hoping for, but it is what I was expecting. Now for the next question I had. We are planning on having a fixed dish set up on a pylon at the dock. Basic dish setup is fairly straightforward, even if getting access to the location will be a bit of a pain. I was...

I'm in the process of setting up a sat system on a boat. We currently have a KVH tracvision M1DX. If I understand correctly it emulates a DISH 1000 switcher, and points at the 110, 119, and 129 depending on the control signals sent from the receiver connected to the "Unstacked" output. It also...
