    Slimline Dish w/ 1 HD-DVR and 2 HD Receivers

    Thanks jdspencer! I didn't realize they sold LNBs with SWM builtin. That seems like the easier option since I have to dismantle the dish and move it with me anyway. So I would take one cable from the 3LNB SWM to a 1x4 splitter, and then a cable to each receiver? What about the HD DVR? Say I...

    Slimline Dish w/ 1 HD-DVR and 2 HD Receivers

    I'm moving to a new house and we're adding a third receiver in addition to the 2 we have now (1 HD-DVR, 1 HD receiver). Rather than paying for an install, I'm just going to order the third receiver and hook it up myself. Problem is, when DirecTV came out to install the dish the first time at...

    HD Satellite Dish

    How would I be able to determine whether my SD locals are on the 119 or 110 satellite? Or if I need the 110 and 119 sats at all? Obviously I'm a complete newbie.

    HD Satellite Dish

    Hi, I am moving to a new apartment that has one of the older dual LNB dishes. DirecTV won't upgrade my dish because of some contract with the apartment complex (each apartment has it's own dish with a dish mount). The CSR said that I could purchase a dish on my own if I wanted to, so long...
