It's pretty simple. As mentioned above, forget about your current wiring (you might be able to use one cable but follow what must be done).
You MUST run one dedicated cable to each receiver (not TV, satellite receiver). If you are using a DPP 1000 dish that one cable can run to either a single tuner receiver or a DVR/dual tuner (with the addition of a Dish Separator. You can also buys something like a dual tuner receiver where one box allows 2 users to watch 2 different channels. HD only to the TV where the receiver is connected and SD everywhere else. If you want HD at each TV you will need a receiver at each TV.
