Splitters

Archived from groups: alt.video.satellite.mpeg-dvb (More info?)

Good morning, Ron.
You would want the type that pass power on one port only, and that port
would get connected to your 4DTV. It is usually a good idea to get the
splitters from the same dealer you got the receiver from, and at the same
time. This reduces shipping costs, and if there is later a burned out power
supply or something there is likely to be less finger pointing than if third
party components are used. If that is not possible, then myself and most
all other dealers should have these in stock.
