Of the receiver. You've mixed up your post with the satellite talk. That is, without the dish there's no reason to expect that to work.
Now if you want to put your cable supplied content to the receiver that's an entirely different problem that the cable company should be able to help with. Here you would have to tell all the details but forget and don't write any more about the sat dish since that's just not in play yet.
Hello, I have several tv's in my house that are connected through cable directly without any receiver/decoder. I get lots of channels that have an acceptable quality. I wanted to watch cable tv on my projector, but since it doesn't have a cable input so I bought a receiver (starsat). When I connect the cable to my receiver to set it up it gives me options to choose a satellite so that I can fetch channels. But none of the satellites give any channels. The signal bar gives values that vary alot within the same satellite while the quality bar is always 0% no matter which satellite I choose. There is no satellite dish on our roof. We get cable tv from a provider that distributes the service in our region. We get international channels, not only local. I'd like to watch the same channels that I get on my tv through the receiver, how can that be achieved?
Thanks!!!
