Just woundering if anyone can help me with setting changes I have to do and how to set up a 9/8 emp multiswitch for 2 satellites, 4 lmb's. Also would like to know how to work a HD antena into the switch and if there is a way to set it up in a nano se. Thanks for all the help and info. Ironside.

the Nanosat SE doesn't have a terrestrial antenna tuner
for the 9x8 switch do this
sat one---diceque 1-----22hz---off
sat two---diceque 1-----22hz---on
sat three---diceque 2-----22hz---off
sat four---diceque 2-----22hz---on

is there a way to have the antenna hooked up to the switch and then taken from the cable before the rec by some spliter or switch or something or is the only way to do it is to run a 2nd cable to the rooms?, thanks homer71 for your help, Ironside

Yes use a diplexer.

The emp 9x8 gives you four lnbs, one terrestrial antenna input, and 8 receivers. Just plug which ever receiver you have that has a ATSC tuner into one of the 8 inputs.

Homer, all 8 receivers are nano se, and is the terrestrial antenna input, should that be on or off? Thanks For all your help, Ironside

Some EMP switches that have an external TV antenna connection, have a DC voltage on the external TV antenna connection, this would power the in-line amp for the TV antenna. (if you need one)
I would go to TVfool.com and find out what size and type of TV antenna you need, this will tell you if you even need the in-line amp. (don't use one if you don't have to)
The EMP switch will amp the TV signal to all outputs, then the diplexer will go on the coax to the receiver and split out the TV signals from the satellite signals, you can use a diplexer on all the coaxes going to all receivers.
