This is my rendition of my DirecTV setup. It works for SWM HD dish with a receiver in the bedroom and receiver in the living room area. The splitters must be for a satelite frequency. The hard part is figuring which coax is which. It works for me. I can still use CG cable or antenna by reconnecting the jumper.

Roller4Tan, I tried this set-up using a regular splitter and had a problem with the bedroom TV. It seemed that I could watch some stations independently on each TV but sometimes we had to watch the same station on both TV's or it didn't work. Two different Direct TV people told me that I couldn't use a splitter even if it's a Direct TV splitter. They suggested I run a separate cable to the the bedroom TV so I did that and it works great.
My question is, if I did use a Direct TV splitter would the diagram above work like it should and what kind of splitter? There are different types of Direct TV splitters.
