Answer 1

You can get a splitter and connect from the receiver to the splitter, and then from the splitter to both tv's. However, you can't watch different programs at the same time on both tv's, and you won't be able to use the remote unless its a UHF.

Answer 2

If you have your TV hooked up with the composite or s-video cable you can just run coax directly from the receiver to the other TV. This way you won't need a splitter.

Answer 3

You can run coax from the RF output of your receiver, but you cannot watch a different channel. To do that, you have to add a "mirror" receiver. You have to buy that, plus DirecTV will charge you a mirroring fee (~$5.00/mo). If you buy another receiver, you have to call DirecTV to activate it even if you install it yourself.
