how do you splice satellite to a third tv?

Question

I have 2 tv's with satellite, but, was told by the satellite man, that if I wanted it for the third tv, I would have to splice it? Please give step by step directions, since, iwill be doing this myself and have never done it before....thanks

I have the splicer, but, what now? Yes, it's the same as cable wire...where do I hook the splicer up to and the cable wire??? Yes, I have no clue with how to do this...

Answer 1

If you are wanting to watch a different channel on the third TV you will need another receiver. If you are wanting to watch the same channel that's on the main TV you will need a 3-way splitter. Install the cable to the out-to-TV fitting of the Satellite receiver and connect it to the input of the splitter. Put a cable on the 1st output of the splitter and run it to the main TV. The next cable goes on the 2nd output of the splitter and goes to the second TV. The 3rd cable goes from the output of the splitter to the new TV location. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Is this the same as cable tv? If so, you can get a splicer at Walmart much cheaper than 100.00.

Answer 3

You may be able to split it to another TV but you will have to watch what is on the other TV or Sat tuner. You can get a remote extender to change the channel from another room.

It only costs $5 a month for them to add another Room. If you argue it enough they will come and install it all for free. I have had Sat for 15 years or more. They always come and install or update equiptment for free when I ask nicely for it.
