I want to distribute my ATSC digital signal throughout my house just like my Dish Signal.
I'd like to combine the signal from my Dish Network DVR that goes out via coax on Channel 3 to one TV and 73 to the others. I'd like to have a single cable in my house that carries those two signals plus the signal from my CM 4228. I have an LG HDTV that has an ATSC tuner, but the LCD upstairs only has NTSC and will need a digital converter box, I'll also need one to power the HD signal to my LCD projector in the basement.
Maybe these images will explain it better. Is this possible? What sorts of joiners or combiners will I need? Should I just break down and subscribe to the HD service from Dish, and then plug in my antenna to their box to get all the other locals?
It should be simple with a diplexer/combiner. The diplexer allows voltage pass to through one side for the satellite and ATSC signal through the other side.

Take a look here. Seen it referenced before in another forum for diplexor ideas and check out the backfeeding - mirroring information too ...Good luck.
yes I have OTA and Dish network they are all combined so I just push a button on the remote to switch from Sat. to OTA. the antenna also runs to my PVR so I can record stuff and burn it to DVD.
