I think there was a way when I had dish network but I never used SAP so I 
can't say for sure. I'm sure if there's a way to do it, it will work out the 
RCA jacks as well as the other ones.
With the updating they can do with the digital cable boxes, I'm sure they 
can work out the digital conversion since, at least the newer cable boxes 
like the ones I got with Fios, have been made well after they knew about the 
switch. I know there's talk of a delay but I have a few friends in the field 
working with local TV channels and they'd rather see it over with because 
running digital and analog is a waste of money, many of them are switching 
early. If they have their way the switch would be made right now with no 
notice.
