I have four accounts on one 18” round Direct TV satellite dish. This is how it is hooked up. It has a dual LMB hooked into a 4X4 Satellite Dish Multi-Switch
Zinwell SAM-4402-3A. Two receivers are about seventy feet away from the dish on separate lines. Because I didn’t have enough wire I used at least two double female barrel splice f-connectors. The third account is about one hundred feet away with a direct shot right into the receiver. The fourth account is approximately 140 feet away and it has at least one double female barren splice F-connector in it.
I would like to hook up another account to this dish so I ordered 6x8 Multi-Switch

Zinwell Wide Band WB68 and installed it.

I ran a fifty foot cable and my birddog found the satellite. I put a double barrel in and ran another fifty foot cable and my birddog found that. I ran one hundred and fifty foot after that and I could not find the satellite. I replaced that wire with another one thinking that was the problem and it was not. I then installed Zinwell Sam-6802 6 x 8 Multi-Switch which has a built in amplifier. I could not find the satellite on the fifth account and the long account line lost or broke up on some of the channels. Which means to me that the signal is dropping?

My question is, can anyone please help me solve my problem. I am thinking of adding another dish or I see on line I can buy a DirecTV Multi-Satellite Tri-LNBF.

Higher quality cable would do better but I think more than 125' long cable is a problem.
