I just switched to DISH and currently have a single dish pointed at 110/119. I want to install a second dish to get CBS-HD, which needs to be pointed to 148. This hopefully will be only temporary, because I've been informed by DISH that they plan to move the CBS-HD station (9454) to 110 in the future. DISH will install a second dish for 100 bucks, but I think I could do it cheaper because I do have a friend who will give me a dish. My question is where do I make the connection between the first and second dish so I only have one cable feeding down to my TV. Also, what LNB for the second dish and is there any special hardware needed (special switch etc.) needed. Thanks in advance for any help.

what type lnb is on your 110/119?
this will determine what switch and lnb you need.
