13v is Vertical
18v is Horizontal

unless its the stock Primestar LNB's that specifically say H & V it doesnt matter which LNB port goes where
 
Thanks, Ice. Yup, it's the OEM Primestar LNBs. I just wanted to make sure I have them wired correctly, so when the receivers select V or H, they'll get the right polarity.:)
 
4x4 Channel Master switch

I've got a related question. Right now I'm using a 4x4 channel master switch with a stock primestar LNB. I have the V and H going into it on the A input, everything works fine. I was wondering if I could run a second (standard linear LNB with only one cable output, not a split polarity like the primestar) into the 22hz (LNB B input). Does it matter if I run it in on 13 or 18v?

If the LNB only has one output then you have to plug it into either 13v and get only vertical or 18v and get only Horizontal

If you have a fixed dish at say 123W then plug the cable into the 13v since 99% of the stuff is on Vertical. But if you want both polarities then you need a dual LNB
