I currently have Direct TV and TIVO at my residence but am living on the
boat this summer and would like very much to have an equivalent setup on the
boat by bring my TIVO unit and 2nd receiver box to boa tan connecting them.
The object is to be able to record a program on the TIVO unit while watching
a second on that TV while someone else is watching yet a third program on
the other TV. I already have a tri LMB dish mounted on a post next to the
boat but have been advised that I CANNOT run the 3 inputs thru my normal
boat wiring system to the receiver units as they send a voltage back to the
LMBs. The installer says that I have to run separate inputs to the TIVO
unit (2) and a third to the 2nd receiver, Any body know differently. TIA
for any advice. Fred



What you need is a MultiSwitch, for your system. Ebay is your friend.
I just bought one for my new DirecTivo so that I can have it and my 2
old receivers all running off the one Dual LNB. cost me about $25US
