Not DTV, but the company that peddles X-10 stuff also has wireless TV
relay transmitters. I doubt anyone will develop those for DTV, there
just isn't enough market. So you could hang a converter box to the sat
receiver output (maybe where it comes out on Ch 3,4), convert to analog
and send it up there wirelesssly.

I've got one of those.

I consider it essentially useless. It operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM
band... the same place as 802.11b, a lot of cordless phones, and most
microwave ovens.

Turn on a microwave oven anywhere in the house (or in any of the
nearby neighbors' houses) and the video signal is disrupted and the
audio roars staticbuzz at you.
