I would like to add a 3rd HD receiver. I have a slimline 3 dish. Does DirecTV have to send someone out to install it? If they add a Zinwell WB68, Will they need to splice the existing cables and add connectors to run to the Zinwell WB68 from the existing receivers? I will call DirecTV today. I hope it will not cost anything. I plan on dropping my cable TV and upgrading to the Premier package.

If you have the standard Slimline 3, there are 4 connectors hidden under the LNB assembly. All 4 have to be run to the WB68 from it unspliced, and from there, yes the additional lines need to be run to your current receivers. Typically DirecTV (through the contractors) would take care of that for you.
