Sat 1 goes to the LR TV no problem there. The Sat connection in the bedroom has two female outlets with a jumper between them. What this allows is for you to insert the sat receiver BEFORE the splitter. The signal out of the Sat receiver can then be split. Sat signals cannot be run through the normal signal splitter. There are some out there that I have read about that allow this but I have no experience with them. The jumper may be missing but I suspect that is why you see two outlets on the one labelled Satellite.
I think your right about Sat1 and Sat2 being straight runs. It's hooked up now and works fine. However I would like to use the connection behind the bedroom tv marked satellite. Next to that plate is the park cable connection which works as it should. Still trying to figure the plate with two coax's attached to it marked Satellite. thanks for the advise, I appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks for the reply, the satellite guy who came out tried a what I think was a jumper at the two female connections that were marked satellite. I have given up and run a designated line for the BR satellite receiver. Took less time than trying to figure this mess out.
I tried what Bill suggested and that did not work so I gave in. Works fine now just a little more expense and work.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
