[mythtv-users] Re:Adding a second satellite/cable box

[Rob Parkhill]

If SBC says you can have two recievers, then you are golden. Worst-case 
scenerio, you have to run some cable yourself from the other room where 
they would have hooked it up to the room with your TV/myth combo. (This 
is assuming that each room has a seperate cable line to the main switch 
for the whole complex...)

Call 'em up and ask for the second reciever to be installed. When they 
show up, tell them to install it right next to your current reciever. 
Then they get to do all the fun work of running new cables, etc., if 
that needs to be done.

later...
