This is my speciality regardles of what other people have to say about
me.....I install satellites for Terry's Computer Shack here in
Mendota....Youcan use the diplexer from the ant and the lnb from the dish.
Use one line to the receiver. Use another diplexer in the reverse from one
line to 2 lines..Connect one to the sat input and the other to the ant
input.......should work ok.
