AT9 Install with Current 3LNB Setup

[ScottJayhawk]

I currently have a 3LNB dish installed. I have a Zinwell 4x8 multiswitch with the cables coming directly from the LNBs on my dish into the multiswitch. When moving to the new AT9 dish will I need any additional cable runs from the dish into the house and/or a new multiswitch?

Thanks in advance for everyone's help!

I'll have to check when I get home...I don't know.

The Zinwell WB68 is the only switch that will work with the AT9 and yes it does have to be marked wideband.

boba ,

good catch, i didnt think of that, has to be 6X8 wide band, he needs a new switch.

The switch that is used with the 3LNB dish will not work with the AT-9. There is a picture of the new switch on the sat install part of my site

How many wires will be required from the AT-9 dish to the wide band switch??

4 RG6 runs, the same as you have now.
