DirecTV and Winegard SDi

[Lightseekers]

I just change from Dish Network to DirecTV at the home base. I could take a reciever from home and use it in the MH when we go out. I have changed the dip switches on the dome (1 and 8 down - cable coming out front). Does anyone know what I need to change the Dish Type to on the set up menu to link to satellite? Was set to 16: Slimline 5 & 72.5 & 95 and the switch type is set to 1: SWM.

Set the receiver to 2 or 3 LNB oval dish. If you can't find that selection then you use 18" round. Set Multiswitch only and never SWM (RV's don't swim).

You were on the money. I made the changes said and the receiver worked great. Thank you so much.
