New member Username: Captain_americaPost Number: 1 Registered: Jan-06 | I have the idea of placing all of my DirecTV boxes in my basement and then simply running a single wire throughout my house to connect all my TV's. The problem is, is that the co-ax output is only on channel 3 or 4, and if you hook up multiple boxes together, only the box nearest the TV (in terms of through the cable) will show...IE I set box a to channel 3, plug its output into the input of box b, then set box b to output to channel 4 then plug it into the tv, I only get a signal on channel 4. The other problem is is that I have 3 receivers so I would need one to go to channel 5 as well. Is there such thing as a cable TV modulator that can take multiple inputs and then output them to desired channels? |

Do they make a triple input version? |
