sat dish for ?1 tv or
Is it possible to connect the sat dish up to 2 TV's? 1 up the front of the bus and the other down the back.?

We have been doing it successfully for 7 years. Originally with 2.4ghz sender/receivers, a few years ago we changed to 5.8ghz which are now legal in Aust. We do the same with our terrestrial tv.

Not sure which box you have Dot but I recently got sick of the 2.4ghz senders because of the little 'breakups'. I tried all combinations of dip-switch settings. Line of site is OK but my walls are made of tin. (colourbond)
I bought a 40ft HDMI cable & just run it out from the sat box to the bedroom TV if I find something of interest going late into the night.
F1 or MotoGP especially.
I leave the main TV connected via AV from the box.
Both will run at the same time. (AV & HDMI)
The only problem is that they both are on the channel the box is on.
There are HDMI splitters to do the same thing. I saw them in Target today for around $29 I think.

Re: sat dish for ?1 tv or
you should be able to use the same dish for multiple outputs Dot, but a different encoder (box) for each TV or radio would be needed.
No expert though
