I just upgraded my Windows Media Center to 2005. It now supports two tuners and two receivers.

I have it set up in my Media room. I only have two coax cables running to the media rack.

Currently I have a Dish 6000. It has one coax from the Sat Antenna and the other coax to the OTA.

I also have a Dish 508 in the family room and have I think SW21 to split the LNBs for the two receivers.

I now what to add a 3rd Receiver where the 6000 is.

Have some questions:

1. What switch do I need to support 3 receivers and 2 Dishes?
2. Is there a way to use the same coax to carry both the Sat and OTA to the 6000 so I can use the other coax for the second receiver?
3. How should I configure the Sat Dishes and Switches for this type of config?
