Thanks all very much; once again you have provided some great ideas!

In my new construction home, I am bringing the four RG6 lines from my SlimLine Ka/Ku LNB into a Zimwell WB68. From the Zimwell, I will distribute the signal to the various rooms of the house. My quandary is... each room of the house has multiple locations for hooking up a Direct TV receiver...

Thanks Everyone! I did end up buying a new SL3, installed it on the steel outbuilding, and everyting is working great.... thanks everyone for all of your advice and help. Ed

Now that you mention it, I guess I probably don't need a 5 lnb slimline so I will go shopping for a SL3 and a WB68. Thanks a lot for the help. I'm a digital guy and not real good at this satellite stuff. Thanks again. Ed

New Slimline? If I install a new 5-LNB Slimline on the outbuilding (don't know why I didn't think of that before), can someone tell me the best way to port the satellite signal to 6 separate outlets in the building? Thanks, Ed

OK, its back to the drawing board. Thanks everyone for the education; I appreciate it. Ed

It is an oval shaped 5-LNB dish with 4 RG-6 lines coming off of its multiswitch. The main receiver/DVR in the house is using 2 of the RG-6 lines. I routed a third line to the outbuilding. I was hopeing to distribute that signal to different points in the outbuilding through another...

I am attempting to hook up my DTV dish to an outbuilding. In the outbuilding I have a Leviton 47691-5MS 5x8 Multi-Switch. There are 4 satellite inputs to the multiswitch as follows: 18V/22KHz SAT B 18V/0KHz SAT A 13V/220Hz SAT B 13V/0KHz SAT A If I am using only one RG-6 from my dish...

There are actually 4 RG6 cables coming off of my dish. They go to a demark which then has two of the 4 ultimately connected to my HDDVR (the other two are not being used). Sooooo, if I understand what you are saying, I will need to home run one of the two open cables to the second HD receiver...

Help installing second receiver (5 LNB Dish) Thanks Guys! I am trying to get away without pulling another RG6 from the dish if at all possible. I will look into the WB68 and WB616. Thanks again for your help.:)

Hi, I have the same situation as tmasters2876 except that my antenna is a DTV 5 LNB dish. I have 2 RG6 cables coming from the antenna to the back of my DirecTV HDDVR. I want to add a second single channel HD receiver into a second room. Will the same 3X4 Multiswitch scheme work for me? Thanks
