    Searching for signal on satellite in 2 (771)

    basicly look at your sl5 . if it only has 1 wire running down odds are it is a sl5-S (SWM) as the sl5-s only has one outlet. but if you have more (up to 4) it is just a standard sl5 but you could always swap the head and install a splitter or install a swm8 unit (both setups would also require a PI
