This explains a lot. Fuck you directv, why didn't you tell me this was the way it worked in the first place? I've been trying to use a SMW splitter to split a single line on a dual LBN and wondering why it isn't working. I need a SWM capable LBN in order to use that splitter! Now I know I need to run 50 feet of coax to replace that broken line instead of hooking up a 5 dollar splitter! I'll run the $10 worth of cable, instead of paying some asshole $80 & wait two days for him to come out.
There is no comparison between Dish and DirecTV, Dish has to install two dishes on your house to have the capability of HD and local programming, they are about to lose their DVR service, and they just lost their lease on another satellite that is putting their Fox programming in jeopardy, they lose signal due to alignment issues, and their programming is for old people.I have installed both systems and SBCA Certified DirecTV is the better system hands down...
Directv are fucking losers. their programming sucks hairy ballsacks. why anyone would pay for that crap is beyond me. there is NOTHING on cable tv that is good. nothing. not worth 35 bucks a month.
might as well use the free tvu player, hulu and a cable antenna.
If you wish to have Digital Video Recorder (DVR) service then I say stick with DirecTV. Dish Network just lost a patent infringement lawsuit against TiVo and there is a very strong possibility Dish Network will no longer be able to offer DVR service of ANY type. Some will say I lie but trust me it is true. Go ahead and Google "Dish Loses $300 Million Judgment" and see for yourself.
I have 1 terminal down stair living room and 2 recievers is there a way around it with out running a new coxial cable...and where is the multi-switch located? i have to unplug and plug coxail cable to switch to different reciver.
There's a very cool iPhone app called Satellite Augmented Reality. It has a database of over 370 geo sats and lets you view where they are in the sky. It also calculates the azimuth and elevation angles for you based on your location. In addition, it lets you enter a virtual location in order to see what the satellite view would be in, say China, if you are in the US.

I figured surely there new system would be good. I Guess i was wrong. I must say its not too uncommon for me to put more then 4 dvr's in a house. I guess its good for us at dish since direct cant do it :)
Using hardware like the SWME2 and SWME4 you can gang multiple SWM switches enabling support for larger installations. In fact Sonora has created some that hold up to eight swm8's
@whtmustangt99 your an idiot dude. DTV has 3 times the HD you guys do cause your company launched your HD sat into the wrong orbit. look it up its true. The SWiM system is endless. The expanders are called the E & the E2 but better yet we now have the SWiM 16 expander with through ports to give you 32 and so on and so on. Fucking Dish Idiot.

Can you use a signal preamp with the SWM LNB, (or would you want to with 180 feet of cable?) You mention using cable with nothing else inline.
