How difficult is it to self install a SL3-SWM satellite dish?

It's not to hard. If doing a house installation have a clear site pointing south. Make sure the dish arm is level and plumb. There are phone apps to point you to the right direction for the 99, 101 and 103 satellites. You can also get a inline signal finder that goes in between the lnb and the receiver. Use the setup guide in settings to get the strongest signal as possible. 90's are best! Same type setup on a motorhome if you have a tripod setup as I have. It's not hard but it can be challenging! Good luck.

Also if you are buying the dish and lnb make sure you get the 21v power supply for this type!

It is super easy, but if you are asking this you may want to have someone else install it. Here is a link to an installation; http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=998321

The SL-3 Slimline 4-out LNB will work on any DirecTV HD dish (the large elliptical 22.5 in. x 32.5 in. dishes), but it will NOT work on the smaller round SD dishes. Also, note that the the SL-3 Slimline 4-out LNB only picks-up the 99 / 101 / 103 satellites; it does NOT pick-up the 110 / 119 satellites. The "4-out" coax connections limit you to 4 total tuners (4 receivers, 2 receivers and 1 DVR or 2 DVR's) unless you also use a SWM-8 or SWM-16 Single Wire Multi-switch. A SL-3 Slimline Single Wire (1-out) LNB combined with the proper splitters can serve up to 8 total tuners.

Yes but you will need the 21 volt power inserter and possibly a Swm capable splitter. Make sure to remove b band converters from the receiver and only plug it into the satellite 1 (Swm) port

That is a good question. A satellite dish can only accomodate so many receivers. That number of receivers is going to depend on how many LNB's the dish has. You are going to have to be independently attached to an LNB. My overall answer would be YES you need your own dish to enjoy programming!

I have the dish setup and just need the box. What do i need to do to have it fully functional?

Very easy. Only loop installation can be moved to the top by 15mm per episode.I do not know the English language, but using google

Of course not. The unit must be registered with Dish to receive signals. If you are trying to steal satellite service, you will have to find a different way.

The SL3-SWM is the DirecTV HD LNB which, when used with the SWM dish and power inserter, will provide an HDsignal to the receiver. The HR44-700 (Genie) is a DirecTV HD DVR it should work with the SL3-SWM LNB and thepower inserter. Don't forget to use the splitter which blocks the power from getting to the HR44-700.

It does if you are a professional that knows what there doing. But it also ddepends on the satellite it does not work with swm. Lmbs

Yes. It has all the same requirements as a normal dish. This device just makes it MUCH easier to lock on to the satellite.

Is either the software on the box or the satellite antenna house to get adjusted

Yes, but keep in mind this package does not contain an LNB. If you currently have a dish with an compatible LNB you may be able to remove it from the current dish and install it on this dish. If you currently do not have a dish with an LNB for your receiver, an SWM system (SiWM) or SWM SL5S LNB that uses the single wire technology with power injector will be needed.

you do have to have a satellite dish. hope you have better luck than i did. i got one it did not work. sent it back and they sent me another one that also did not work. i have another receiver so i know it is not my system. There support team just said they knew it worked so I just took the loss.

the thing is Called LMB and no you will also need the dish satellite and receiver. to be able to use dish.

I don't see why not but getting the proper software to go with is would be essential. This unit finds satellites with ease.

You need an external hard drive and then hook up with dish network to install, of course there's gonna be a small fee to complete the procedure. It's just a small pinch, and after all it might be worth the cost to accomplish your wishes, we all hate our wallets a little bit.
