Just curious of there's a way to wire up the SW21 with the TV antenna/Dish combiner to get both once inside?
I can't find info in the docs about this... Dish Docs assume you'll be getting locals, and I've heard here that locals are an ecm target....

Sw21 will not work to add a antenna to it.
Locals are not a ECM target, Whoever said that is on something.
If you have to use the same cable for sat and antenna, They have a special combier for it, You will need two of them, 1 for the dish antenna and one at the receiver to split them again. You do lose signal strenth with these, Best to breakdown and just run a cable from antenna to receiver ant in.

How about the antenna/dish combiner after the SW21 switch? I have all this lying about... from by DTV days.
But locals are not an ECM target??? Cool...

That should work fine
