QUOTE(echoesian @ Mar 3 2010, 11:33 AM) Bro, are you using B.yond dish or the old dish ?   He did mention that  QUOTE(chewkl @ Mar 2 2010, 12:44 PM) Guys, wanna ask how do I actually split 1 single Astro cable to 2 decoders, without pulling a new cable from the dish. Reason is my new place uses centralized dish and the cables are already concealed in the wall by the developer. This post has been edited by eMKs: Mar 3 2010, 12:04 PM |

QUOTE(chewkl @ Mar 3 2010, 01:30 PM) Sorry for omitting that info. Right now is still the old dish, but changing to b.yond dish soon. (Cabling no change though). Does it make a difference though? How do you want to change the dish as your house is using centralized dish?  changing the dish also mean change to byond as well. is it right? |

Good news then, your place will be one of the first. For those using individual dish, Astro will provide new dish with LNB that has 2 output, they don't allow using splitter, because when 1 decoder tune to HD channel, another decoder won't get any signal. But not sure about centralized dish, maybe Astro has another solution for this. You need to tell Astro about your situation when they call you for T&C after you register to byond.
