Is there a way to watch different TV programs from one satellite feed?

marci knows best asked:

Is there a device that allows you to watch 2 different programs from one satellite TV feed? We have Dish or Star Choice available if that makes a difference.

    Not really; you would need another satellite box (receiver) in order to tune to a different channel. Going that far; you’ll get another dish with the additional box. Right now all you can hope for is using a TV splitter to distribute the one chosen channel to multiple sets.

    Yes, most satellite providers offer multiple receivers and only have to have 1 feed/dish… If you are getting a new service ask the provider, many packages offer multiple receivers, up to 4 sometimes included in the package, otherwise you can buy another receiver and activate it with your service.
