I am presently using a 24 in dish to receive Direct TV. I now have a spare 18in. Direct TV dish and LNB that I thought I could use to receive the HD Direct TV channels/satellite. What do I need for a splitter? I also have a few different style and sizes of the old Primestar dishes and an LNB adapter for my RCA Direct TV LNB if these would be a better antenna to use for receiving the HD Satellite. Splitter info for use with 2 different antennas feeding an RCA DTC-100 HD Satellite receiver please? Thanks Larry

Use the spare 18in dish and point it at Directv 119 satellite. Then combine the feed from your 24 and now new 18in dishes into a four way switch that normally comes with the 24 x 18 dish. You can buy the switch at Radio Schack for approximately 50 bucks.
