Virgin coaxial cable as a cable for Satellite dish

    Hi all
    It sounds a little bit stupid, but....

    I do have 2 points with Virgin socket (both has coaxial cable) and one in the kitchen (noname). I was thinking is there any way around (e.g. any coaxial splitter) to connect coaxial cable and on the other end (outside house in the Virgin box) get splitter and connect extra few metres coaxial cable to the sat dish. I didn't sign the contract with Virgin yet, but I might do in near future so the question is:
    can the network signal somehow to be divided with sat dish signal? If not I will be forced to put coaxial cable to sat dish around house.


    Thanks in advance

    I wouldn't connect anything to the Virgin setup.

    How many TV points do you intend feeding from the dish?

    For incoming months say 2 only, one would be in living room (virgin box) and the other in the kitchen (noname provided coaxial cable - pure for Sat dish) .
