5.0 out of 5 stars Latest DTV Setup, February 17, 2010

The SWM is the latest HD LNB setup for DTV customers. Signal reception is slightly better over the previous 5LNB and now you only need 1 line out from the satellite LNB's (no matter how many recievers you have) with the power for the LNB's no longer coming from the reciever. It is much easier to split the signal to several recievers and initial alignment is a bit more difficult for the DIYers. The picture on this item of the LNB is not of the SWM LNB. The SWM LNB has one line out and one large "egg like" oval in the center of it.

I received the dish ahead of schedule and it was packed well. The installation was a bit tricky since there wasn't any instructions. The alignment was really difficult but possible. Once again some instructions would have been helpful. I'm an electronics/ computer tech so my experience served me for this but I pitty the normal individual trying to install and align this dish.
