CA/Bobbo, thanks so much.
Bobbo - do I look on the LNB to determine if it requires the SWM injector?
On my H24, I know how to set it up for 18" single LNB. That was an adventure in babysitting the first time around. now it's kiddy play (less than 10 minutes on average - as long as I can see the TV for the signal meter - gosh I mess the old "Beeping" on my first box!!!).
Ulitmately, If I have to, I can use the injector inside the trailer and run the coax out to the antenna. It just becomes another piece of hardware to carry around with the dish.
One thing I like about this dish is it's ability to break down flat (well, almost flat). My 18" round is bulky in comparison (though If I found another one, I'd drill out the spot welds and put in a clevis pin with a quick release) and try that!
Thanks again for the responses!
