First off I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Heres the situation: I am at my parents house in NC and I am helping them upgrade their system so that they can have DVRs where they want them etc. I called Directv and got a SWM dish installed and everything works great but we...

I have 2 h24-700s and an h22. So these need antennas and converters? I don't have a multiswitch they are just hardwired from the dish so should I get an wb68 and hook the antenna into the off air port on it? Also if I wanted to go as cheap as possible since I have herbs I should just be...

I have 3 recievers at my camphouse that i bring from home and the house is far enough away to not have local channels near me so what i was wondering is is there any way for me to get local channels on my recievers here? Can i get an antenna and get some channels that way or something?

haha yeah that means I wanted to know as well. Sorry I thought that was more widely understood than it is apparently haha.

cool! does anyone know of a wireless adapter i can purchase or do i have to use that power bar that has the ethernet port in it? if i do have to use that bar could someone explain to me how it works? i will have a router downstairs but not up and i want one of the recievers upstairs

I'm thinking about buying 2h24's and these arey questions. 1.can I connect Internet wirelessly to them? 2. When it says it has Internet apps what does that mean? 3. Is it possible for me to get DVR service through the Ethernet instead of running another coax to the dish? 4. What are the...

im wanting to run 1 DVR from my neighbors house and my 3 recievers to a multiswitch on a SWM satellite dish Im wondering if all i need to do is buy the multiswitch listed up there and plug the dish and all of the connections into it or if there is more.

Ok im having problems with my setup and i think i may have figured out an alternative. My neighbor and i have a very small space to aim a dish through and his can get signal and mine cannot. Heres my question. He has one HDDVR Setup to a swm line with no multiswitch or anything. Can i take...

another question.....since i have a 4 line satellite can i just bypass the multiswitch and plug 3 of the 4 wires directly into the lines that run to my receivers and leave the 4th wire unconnected?

yeah thats what im worried about.......im getting signal on the 99s and 103ca but nothing else.....could the multiswitch be doing this? i have a guy right behind me that has his dish setup and i have mine setup in the same way.... would the multiswitch take the signal away from some transponders...

Wait. So by getting a BBC that will take my transponder strength from 0?

Ok so question 1 which switch will work does anyone have a link I need a switch that will work for an lnb with 4 lines. Question 2 what is a BBC? Researched the BBC and ordered one.....they said it would be here in 4-6 weeks WOW. This is like the switch that i have hooked up to the thing now...

Ok update. I switched the switches and now I have a select few HD channels prolly 1/3 of em

I have an h20 reciever. I have another switch that someone left here that is a 2x4 so I hav that plugged into my dish and down into my HD reciever. I get good signal at 101 at 99c I get all 0s 99s: 53 0 92 0 91 0 - - - - - - - - 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 103s: 83 0 75 0 0...
