I purchased what was described as Zinwell 6x8 SAM-6802 multiswitch off of ebay. It arrived today and when i got it out of the box it was the newer WB68. Can i still use this with a phase 3 dish and 18" dish for locals? My setup is all SD,i have no HD eqipment.

Thanks Iceberg. I contacted the seller about the error and he insist that it's the SAM-6802 even though it clearly says WB68 on it

I've used the Zinwell 6x8 WB68 with my 3LNB dish for several months and it works great! Also, it doesn't require external power which is nice.

Yeah i use them all the time now when the workorder calls for a 4*8, i put up a 6*8 if power is not close for the 4*8. I hate running the power especially if its outside...

It's only free if it's required.
