On Sunday Sep 9 I had my Direct Tivo and Multidish professionally installed. I was very busy, and not watching him closely. He seemed to have some trouble, but everything seemed to be working when he left.
I think he did not know what he was doing. He seemed to be confused by the Multidish's built in multiswitch when he first started, and now I can not tune in some channels like the NASA channel. Is it possible that he only has the dish pointing at one of the satellites? In my area, Houston, I believe the local channels are on the main satellite. So most people in my area only have the round dish. I think the whole "Multidish Concept" was over his head.
Anyway, I am new to Satellite TV, so maybe it is me who is confused.
Also, Isn't there some sort of code requiring that the Satellite feeds be grounded? He sent the leads straight down my outside wall and directly into my connector jacks inside my house. Is this right? I live in unincorporated Harris County, boardering Houston.
I don't currently have HDTV. Do I even need to be able to "see" more than one satellite? How would I check this?
Thanks
