Hello my name is Kimberly Escobar from DISH Network customer support. I ran through your post here and wanted to provide you with the information you are searching for. Unfurtunetly if you have an hd tv set up as your tv 2, it is not possible for that television to provide hd reception. Reason being is because set ups for tv two's run off a coax cable which is not hd capable. What you can do is look into an upgrade. You can contact us at any time to ask about our Dishing It up promotion or you can also contact me directly at [email protected]
