It won't work as you wish using your existing splitter.
For a dual tuner setup, you either need to run the second coax off the dish, thru a rear window or other possible option (in ours, it would probably be possible to fish coax down to the bottom on that bedroom slide, and put in a screw connection that was accessible when the slide was open. Possible, but not easy)
Second option would be to get a switch from dish, and put that in your overhead where all the video stuff is. You can use that to feed the coax going to the rear TV (NOT thru the winegard box!) This will only work well if your coach is wired with RG6 cable.
We use a singgle reciever (we all have to watch the same channel) and it works well using the wineguard switch and the monaco external sat in hookup.
