How would you upgrade an existing (Directv) Seatel Series xx04 Antenna with Dual Ku LNB Marine Standard Definition Satellite system to a Dish Network HD system?
According to Seatel's manual, It looks like all I will need to get is an HD converter (HDTV 110 WEST CONVERTER KIT) and install it before the Multi Switch. does that applies to Dish Network or only for Directv?
I will also need to install a manual or an automatic switch on the 110 input of the Multiswitch (I guess I need it in order to switch between the HD channels and the Standard channels).
And of course upgrade all the receivers to HD and upgrade the TVs and wiring to support HD.
Is there a way to avoid the switching? Iv'e heard that it is a problem and in some cases the switching takes very long time and can be very disturbing. But again, that was with Directv.
Does it make sense to just drop the Standard Def. and just watch HD?
Does anyone have an idea on what's the best way to deal with this issue?
I know that Directv will be dropping the HD over the KU band and move it all to KA band, will Dish Network leave all the HD channels on the KU band?
Thanks!!!
