I have the SK-3005 on my motorhome and asked Winegard the same question and was told the SK-3005 does not have the electronics to do this. I am tempted to try it because I have a spare SWM lnb laying around. If you try it and it works please let me know and I will also give it a try.

Thank You

Question for all you techies out there. First some history. I have a SWM (no converter needed) dish mounted on a tripod which I use with my motorhome. I am now in the process of installing a SK-3005 auto dish on the roof which does need the converters. My question is can I use the converters...

I have HD in my Motorhome. I bought a surveyors tripod and mounted a SWM-3 with a slimline dish on the tripod. I can get it aligned and ready to go in about 15 minutes. Signal in high 80's to high 90's on 99,101 and 103. What I did was buy a new R-22 downloaded the software to make it HD and put...

I have mine (HR-22 ) in a small cabinet in my motorhome. This weekend I was having problems with the unit. I checked the temperature and it was 136. Needless to say I moved it to a larger cabinet with more air space and temps down to 113 and no more problems.

I'm using a SWM-3 on a tripod with my HR-22 in my motorhome. No problem setting it up. It now takes me about 10 minutes and I'm up and going. HD all the time.

I use a SWM with a tripod for my Motorhome , No meter needed. Very important that tripod or mounting is level. Have someone near TV to read signal strength and takes about 10 minutes to set up

As far as diplexers I am using a pair of them in my Motorhome and they work just fine. When I am at a Campground that has cable I hook up the cable and my SWM-3 on a tripod to the diplexer and everything works. No problems with signals on cable or satellite.

Exact same problem here since software update, Really sucks.

I bought my Slimline dish and SWM-3 LNB with power supply and splitter for $95 with free shipping off Ebay

Here's what I did. I bought a Slimline dish with a SWM-3 LNB off E-bay. I have it mounted on a tripod for use when I take it in my Motorhome. I bought a R-22 receiver from Newegg and downloaded the new software which makes it HD. It took me a while to get dish set up first time but now takes...

I could be wrong but don't you need two diplexers. I had to use two with my setup, one on each end or it wouldn't work.

Joe Got it done. High 80's to high 90's on 101,99 and 103. Everything but 99S, which is all zero's but I think that is normal. Thanks for your help. Joe

Joe I have the round dish and have been using it all year. On my last coach that I sold I had a crank up dish on the roof. I just bought a new coach (2006 new to me) and took out the 23 inch sd tv and put in a 32 inch hd Samsung. They do make a automatic dish for the coach but it is $1600, OUCH...

Joe Thank you. I'm going to set it up at home first and then hope it doesn't change too much in my travels. All I need now is the software upgrade for the R22 and I will be in business. I have the table for the transponders so I will make a note of the channels. Too much trouble to take the...
