I don't have the same setup being discussed here but... in one post it's mentioned to use the CATV connection. In another it's mentioned 12v is needed on the line. Since I know the TV booster button provides 12v to the tv antenna via the cable wiring, would it in turn make sense that when the sat is connected to the cable connection it would need the booster ON to get the 12 volts? Or does that 12v go only to the tv antenna and not the rest of the cable wiring? I wouldn't want somebody to burn something out because of this but thought I'd throw this in for comment.
