I am not a technician, but do set up my own direct tv satellite stuff from time to time. All my DVRs are 2 wire types. I picked up a SWM slimline dish and was looking for information on doing my own hookup. I am In over my head? I have only done HD 2 wire slimline setups using a signal meter and have not ventured into swm

to Satelliteguys lappel1998!If you have set up a regular ka/ku dish, then a swm shouldn't be any problem. It's a little different since you need a power inserter and a splitter if you have more than one receiver. Here is a link to some videos: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=aligning a directv swm dish&sm=3
If you need more specific direction let us know.

Note, you need a SWM Splitter, not just any ordinary splitter.
NP,
Those of us that talk about this stuff, know it and take it for granted, but not everyone is in the field as much as many of us here are, so I wanted to make sure he was aware of that.
