Direct TV
New to full timing, we have two receivers one of them able to record, and has two tuners. I set it up with only one tuner active and have problems when it comes to recording and watching at the same time. I set it up that way because Direct TV informed me that I needed to run a separate cable from the antenna to the receiver for it to work. Now my question, instead of running a cable all the way from the antenna, what if I installed a spliter and connected to both "cable in" ports on the back of the unit? Would I then be able to activate the second runner and be able to watch a different channel than I am recording? What type of spliter would do the trick? Thanks!
