Satalite dishes

What Dutch said.
We had a dome and replaced it with a Trav'ler. The Trav'ler is a larger dish - we have had better luck getting reception through trees with the Trav'ler over the dome.
We have two receivers and both can access any of the satellites at any time. With the dome, the second receiver can only access whatever satellite the primary receiver tunes in. If the primary receiver changes to a different satellite, the secondary loses what ever they were watching.
With the Trav'ler, we can have a hopper and joey rather than just having the 211s. This allows us to DVR any show we want to watch later without having to worry about what satellite is tuned in.
With a Trav'ler there isn't a delay when changing channels on different satellites. This allows us to jump from one channel to another without pause. Of course, the Hopper allows us to view multiple channels at once - great when there are two sporting events on at once.

Reading above, does this mean that if I am watching on a single tv with the pathway x2, on say, Dish, will I be able to access all channels on my Dish subscription WITHOUT the x2 having to switch between satellites?

If the answer to that is "no", and if I want to switch from channel x (on say the western arc satellite) to channel y (on say the eastern arc satellite), this will likely take several minutes (for the x2 to recalibrate and find the new satellite). If that's the case, this product is useless, IMO.

Am I understanding the x2 correctly?
