One receiver with a 4x8 switch....???? Why ???

Some 4 by 8 Zinwell switches are legacy switchs, this means you need 2 legacy LNB's, a legacy LNB needs 2 input/outputs per LNB.

Is this the one you have ?

It also has a wiring diagram.

thanks terryl for leading me to the sight that had the diagrams. i hooked it up to a dish 500 with 2 single dish feedhorns and like you said you have to run 2 lines to the feedhorn and if you dont youll get half of your channels because youll either be getting vertical or horizontal polarites. anyway i have 2 sonicview 360ps and 1 captiveworks 800 on 110 & 119 working flawlessly, before i was getting conflicting receivers.
