Things You Know:
The GUIDE Plus+ System won't work if you use this connection because it doesn't interpret information
from satellite
programming. It only downloads cable TV listings and/or off-air broadcast listings.
You can't use the 2Way Splitter that came with the DVD Recorder to split the satellite signal because it won't read
digital signals properly.Therefore,
you can't record one program and watch a different program _z the same time.
