How Do I Switch One Satellite Dish Between Three TVs?

Install a multi-switch to your satellite system so you can share the feed from your satellite dish between multiple TVs in your home or business. Multi-switches take the feed from the LNB or low noise block ports on your satellite dish, and divides the signal so more than one satellite receiver can hook up to the dish. Use a multi-switch approved by your satellite service provider for the best connection.
