Re: How can hook up 2 recievers
you could run a cable out from your receiver to the other one but you will have to watch the same channel on both I think.

Re: How can hook up 2 recievers
I have the quad and it says 119 on one side and 110 on the other although I have the 7100 plugged into the 119 side and it still picks up both 119 110..... so what's next? by the way you guys are awesome this is the best site with the best folks.. I wanna brag on you guys but at the same time everybody doesn't deserve to test  jk |
