Another Dish ??

We have gotten switched over from DTV to dish at the house. I found a satellite the same as the one that they put on my house and I will use that one with the kitchen TV and Wally receiver when I travel into the wilds with a tripod. The dish is a Dish HD, I believe a 1000.2 or close. It has no coax to it but I have some I can use, including the one that was on the DTV dish that I had used until now. I found a good set of instructions to setting it up with, the three LNB's and all. It was talking about using a dpp44 switch to hook to the three coax from the LNB. My question is , when I looked up what programs come in on what satellite most all come in on 119 with some on 110, 129 seems worthless. Could I just hook up the one 119 LNB and work with that, or, could I use a reverse coax splitter, two in and one out to hook up 119 and 110? I am trying to make this as simple as possible.

You're putting the cart before the horse.

What switch (DPP44, DPP31, Solo Node, etc) you use -- if any -- depends on what receiver(s) you're using.

For example, if you're just using a single Wally, you only need 1 coax. If you had 3 Wallys, then you would need 3 coax runs from your dish.
