Cables for local H.D.

[frank29]

When an area gets local H.D. broadcasts from the satellite, I assume four runs of RG6 from the AT-9 dish are all you need? I sure hope four is the correct number; because, that is what I have prepositioned for my pending DirecTV service.

If you have fewer than four tuners, you can use fewer cables. For more than four tuners, run four to a WB68 multiswitch and go from there to the tuners.

If you can pick up your local HD broadcasts OTA, some people opt for a run for that as well. For the dish, though, four should be the max you need.
