Way cool innovation.
We just has Dish Network installed.
It's TERRIFFIC.
Now I can see all the programs y'all talk about.
Been watching Food Network most of the day.
Yum!

One receiver is in the bedroom and also connected to the TV in my office/study/whatever, adjacent. The Dish guy said I could get a couple of repeater thingys, plug one into the receiver and the other into the office TV, so I could change channels, etc., without having to get up and go into the bedroom.

The No-Cost innovation:
There's a 2' X 3' print hanging on the wall behind our bed. The Dish receiver is on the opposite wall. I can point the remote at the glass on the print, not moving from my desk chair, and the signal bounces to the receiver. VIOLA!
Oh, I AM a smart boy.
