Re: hd antenna setup
You can do that. The setting would be DiSEqC port 3. You would find the satellite signal using TP 12282. It would be best to have a 30" dish or larger and a circular LNB. I say that because large dishes generally come with a Linear LNB. If you ask the seller you need a Circular LNB, he should give that to you for free. If you are running 2 receivers, though, or plan to, you may want to find a Dish Pro single-eyed dual output LNB for the large dish, however. If all the LNBs are not DP, you will get conflicts between the 2 receivers.
Hope This Helps !!

Re: hd antenna setup
Yes, you could "piggy back" as you call it a Legacy Twin LNB for both DN 110W and 119W satellites. It just would have problems running 2 different receivers. I would only use this for a single receiver like I stated earlier, running 2 receivers without having all Dish Pro LNBs will cause conflicts.
