Is an additional multiswitch included in install of 5 LNB dish?

[gamecox86]

Directv is sending someone out to install my 5 LNB dish this week. Will they give me an additional multiswitch to branch off to other receivers (other than my HR10 and HR20)?

I got a free 6x8 one w/ my install

I got the 5lnb slimline dish and a paid for hr20, dish was free though

[gamecox86]

did they just give it to you, or did you have to ask for it?

I asked the guy. I just asked if he had one so I could run more lines myself, he said no problem and grabbed it.

but it MAY depend on the guy though, ya never know.

If you have more receivers than can be fed of the built in 4 output multiswitch, the installation should include an additional switch.

DirecTV knows how many receivers you currently have, how many you are having installed with the dish, so the installer should come prepared.
