Round & Slimline Installation

[Andy408]

Hi everyone,

I currently have round dish receiving both 101 and 95 on SD. I want to add a slimline dish with sl3s lnb (4 outputs) in addition to existing round dish to receive HD on my H21 receiver. I also have the multiswitch 6x8 available for installation.

My question is: With round dish (aimed at 95 only), slimline (101 for HD) and a 6x8 multiswitch, can I receive both signals from round dish (for 95 international on flexport1) and HD on slimline? Can round dish, slimeline, and 6x8 switch work well together? Any special setup required?

If anyone has ever done this type of setup, please drop me a line. Thanks very much

You need a SL3, not an SL3S. Run the 4 lines from the SL3 into a SWM8 multiswitch and then run the 95 dish into the SWM8's flexport.

Then out of the SWM8 you'll run 1 line that will carry all 4 sats.

Great. Thank you Jeff.

I got a Zinwell Wide-Band WB68 6X8 Multi-Switch. Does my setup work with this WB68 switch or it only works with the SWM8? Thanks

You need home runs for each wire with that multiswitch.

Ok see the difference now. Thanks Mike
