Hey folks. I just bought a new house and the previous owners had Directv. I want to disconnect the dish which is hooked into the cable box and want to make sure I do it the right way. Plus, I don't want the cable guy to get there and go "I can't do anything until the dish is undone".
Anyway, below are three pictures of the setup. The cable to the satellite dish comes in from the right. It looks like the green wire is the ground for the satellite, and they connected the Directv to be able to get to one or more of the rooms in the house (all rooms are wired).
And here is a view of how the ground is connected (green wire):
I'm thinking I disconnect the satellite dish connection where it goes into the house, and then disconnect the green ground wire. The satellite will be on the roof for another week or two until I can get a ladder tall enough. What do you guys and gals think?
