Self install of Whole Home
I just got off the phone with DTV and they tell me that I have to have a SWM dish when I have a 3 LNB now. I have a H23 and HR23 both with deca's attached. Whole home works fine. By reading different postings, I need a 3rd deca with power supply for internet access. My systems already has a power inserter but hooked inline versus the new way of hooking it directly to a 4 or 8 way splitter. My question is, if I add the 3rd deca w/power supply, will it work with out changing the dish?

You must already have a SWiM dish (or a separate SWiM module) or DECA would not be working now. You shouldn't need to do anything but add the broadband DECA and power supply.

If you intend to piggyback the BB DECA on an existing cable, be sure to get the necessary 1x2 green label splitter too. If you're going to connect it directly to the main splitter all you'll need is the DECA and PS.
