Here is my situation:
New HR21 HD D*receiver installed with new rg6 run to it from LNB5 dish.
The installer stated he grounded the dish and the rg6 thin ground wire was not needed for anything after the switch. Not sure where or how he grounded the dish.
(He did not do a second grounding as seems to be suggested in some forums after the switch with the thin rg6 grounding wire).
The rg6 thin ground wire was actually stripped off the last few feet in order to fit the rg6 coax cable through some wall holes. It is intact the rest of the way
Anyway-system works fine UNTIL I use the digital coax out from the HR21 HD-DVR receiver and connect that to my Denon HT receiver.
Two questions:
1) Would it be safe to also connect the RG6 thin ground wire to a cold water pipe that is next to where it enters the house?
2) Is there an after market device that will fix this that I can connect the coax cables to before they enter the HD-DVR HR21 receiver?
Thanks for any input.
