Four cables it is - the signal from the new satellites use a different frequency band, which is why you can no longer diplex OTA signals onto the sat signal, the frequency bands overlap. There is also a new 6x8 multiswitch into which you connect the four cablkes from the dish if you need more than four receivers (the multiswich is cascadable for more than eight outputs) - the additional 2 inputs are for those people who need additional dishes for locals/international, so most people can ignore them.
