What kind of satellite system is this DIRECTV or Dish Network?
|
I'm always right. The only time I was wrong was the time that I thought, that I was wrong.

Call OnQ Technologies 1-800-321-2343 and ask for Matt. This company has great tech support and they can lay the system out for you. I forgot to mention OnQ in the list of companies that are great to do business with. www.onqtech.comMike

A house that size and you can't find a spot to hide the dish on it???? Or do they just absolutely refuse to entertain the idea???
Why not use a second dish on the second out building????? At 600 feet away your much better off with a dish out there.
Your biggest problem is going to be signal loss across that 300 foot and then 600 foot run. I would recommend all of those cables be RG-11 at a minimum. There asre several companies who can provide you with signal amps for Direct TV. Once you correct that the rest should be cake if you've done an 18 receiver system.

I use OnQ all the time. They have great products and great tech support. Also they will draw out the whole system for you. I have had great success with OnQ products. In particular We activated 108 cable jacks in a customers house. They had 27 rooms with four cable jacks in each room. Gues what? The system works flawlessly. Great picture, channel modulation works great, Digital boxes work (On Demand and Pay-per view). In the past we have used channel vision, but there tech support is terrible. If you know of a structured wiring comapny that is better than OnQ please share the name of the company, for now i feel uncertain by you comment. Thanks

Yes, this would be a job for spaun or the likes. I know of no "structured wiring" system that would support this design.

I would use the spaun stuff. maybe even looking into doing some fiber runs between breakouts for no loss

I will start with the use of a larger antenna like the Channel Master's Gain Master PremiumDBS antenna(Part# 610029301) which is a 0.75 meter dish that has a feed that supports 3 LNB's or even better a 1.0 or 1.2 meter dish for satellite location that you want to receive. That way you will start your distribution with a strong signal and also won't have to worry about rain fade issues. I second if its posible the use of a separte Dish at the second location and also the use of the Spaun Multi-Sat Cascadable multiswitches. They are way more expensive that any one else but they worth every penny.
