Coaxial cable issue, connecting both dish and antenna?
I connect my coaxial plate (the second TV so I have no receiver) and my antenna my TV at the same time, so it must be the change between the two, what do I need? The dish works well. I want the antenna for local digital channels. Plato does not offer local channels, but it costs money, why would I pay for them when I can get for free.
Go to Wal-Mart or Radio Shack. They sell a switch that allows you to switch from antenna to cable. The cable and the antenna goes into the bottom and a wire coming out the top screw in the coax. I have one because I wanted to do same as you. The switch is only $ 5 and you have to buy a short coaxial cable as well. It is very easy. The switch is in the same aisle that HDMI cables and other things.
