Canadian Satellite setup

Hey Everyone I’m currently getting a Wingaurd TRAV’LER dish installed in my 36B5. The question that I have is how can I set it up that I can have a separate reciver for the bed room and another receiver for in my living Room and also use in the outbdoor TV. And I have bunks with TVs so would they be ran off the bed room reciver. What works best and what have others done! Thanks for the help! Will be running the Shaw service.

Hello,

You require a separate coax to reach receiver to make it work, if you have a PVR you need two coax's at each receiver or run single coax mode and use one. No splitters, no switches. I run Shaw myself. Much different than Dish, Direct or Bhell.

Using DirecTV

I installed the DirecTV version so I have DIRECTV HD and SD. It uses SWM (Single Wire Mutiswitch) Technology that requires just one cable run to each TV. This dish uses a 3 LNB antenna which provides complete coverage of all DIRECTV standard and HD programming. Receives both KU-band (101°) and KA-band (99° & 103°) satellite signals simultaneously.

I paired it up with a Genie system supporting my three TV's. I have DirecTV in our home so DirecTV gave me the Genie hardware for the RV at no charge as long as they did not need to install it. Person at each TV can watch and/or record any channel they want up to a maximum of five channels at the same time.

I have Directv. HD receiver in living room, splitter film there goes out to outside TV and a wireless HDMI transmitter goes to the bedroom TV.
Don't know what Shaw has but now Directv has wireless client based systems that attach to each TV each with separate remotes.
