Last September dish network upgraded my equipment and replaced both satellite dishes with 1 new one. But they also changed satellites as well. I was using 110 and 119 now its 77 and 72. (61.5 wasn't affected). At that time I was paying for additional Fox, NBC and CBS HD stations outside my market through America Direct, which was only using the 110 satellite. I called and asked if I could continue using the 110 satellite along with the 77 and 72 satellites using my new 922 box, but they said the 922's programming didn't support doing this. So, I was wondering if what they told me was accurate and/or if the 922 can support doing this now? I noticed in the point dish menu there is a satellite port 4 and 5 with port 4 having an "x" for "sat:" and "trans:" and "n.c" for device which gives me hope that the programming can now support an additional satellite?

The most you should ever need is 4 satellites (int'l programming on the 4th sat, unless there are LOS issues). If you want to keep AAD, chances are you need a full Eastern Arc install, along with a 119 wing dish for the AAD channels. If you don't have AAD, or don't want it anymore, just a full EA install will get you everything.
Having 5 sats is possible, but it's rare that it's needed.
