you dont need mutiple dishes for multiple connections in the same house..just need different set top boxes..thats fine..coz otherwise it would be the same as cable tv..one person can get the set..then give it free to the rest..quality would be compromised...the very concept of direct to home tv is one set top box for one tv..I hope u can figure it out now
Instead of STB, Tata sky should have bundled a PCMCIA Sat tuner Card, so once could view the channels on the NBook and also record them or simply use it as DVR.
Signals from the set-top-box are strong enough to support 3-4 TV sets without compromising picture quality.
Use the cabling done in homes for Cable TV and use the RF output from set-top-box...connect all your TV's in home.
Just dont tell Tatasky people :) its just like multiple parallel telephones at home...as per BSNL thats illegal.
But u can't view diffent channel on each TV set, b'coz channel is controll from STB not from TV remote. It is showing all channel on TV/AV mode of televison set. but u have one option of multple connection in one home at just EXtra cost of Rs100, but ofcourse after u purchase new STB@2999 and installtion, cabling done from tata sky enginners onlyyyyyyy...
