With one cable, you can feed only one receiver. Adding a switch or splitter to the one cable coming into the wall outlet would not help.

There are 2 options:

1. Connecting the Loop/IF output of one receiver to the other receiver input. This may work properly if having only one receiver On at a time.
2. An additional cable run from the dish or outside switch (depending on what is the actual setup) - to th FTA receiver. You may be able to tell what is the actual setup, from the details about ports, sats , device and switch, shown on the Installation Summary screen of your DN receiver.
