I have the following setup from Dish NW. Dish 500+ and Dish 500 antennas installed on roof. All I have is one cable coming into the wall outlet which goes to the power inserter (assuming a DP44 is installed outside- did not get a chance to look at the model of the switch)

With just one cable coming in, how can branch it to an FTA receiver. I tried using a DP34 or disecq or 3 way splitter for Satellite etc, but the minute I connect the Viewsat to any of the switches above, I lose signal to the Dish PVR. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
