How to use dish as an antenna:
Knowing nothing and I mean nothing about satellite dishes that question is the best I could do, sorry.
Here's the story. The dish was installed many years ago. and then was abandoned being replaced by cable TV. Now it is there sitting on the roof doing nothing.
My sister doesn't use cable or anything: not watching TV much all she does is use a small antenna sitting next to her TV. SO a question came to mind. Would it be possible to make my sister use my dish to act as an external antenna therefore giving her better reception and perhaps a few free channels along the way--she lives close to the city center-Montreal.
If the answer is yes then I would need to know how to do this or where I could attain information to do so. If it would require me to spend more than a few bucks then I would scrap the idea entirely.
If anyone could help regarding this I would be most appreciative.
