Install Question

I'm just about ready to make the jump from TW cable to Dish but still have one main question I can't seem to find the answer to. If I want to hook up 3 tv's in my home, 1 HD with DVR and 2 standard with DVR, will the tech have to run new wiring in my home to these tv's even though they are already wired and working with TW cable now? Can he just hook the dish directly to my current coax into the house without having to do any new wiring besides from the dish to the house obviously? Thanks for your help.

If all the feeds come together in one spot, he may can. If you are getting a 622 HDDVR though a wire will come out of it back to your sd tv.

Depends on the wiring. If you have RG-6 wiring, then Dish can use it. If you have the older RG-59 wiring, it'll need to be replaced.

Not that it really matters, because any cabling (up to a point, I think) is included in the free install.
