LNB Set-up Question

Please forgive me if this isn't the right section...

I just got a Viewsat Xtreme for my nephew in columbus, OH. He has two DN dishes. One has 1 DishPro LNB and the other has 2-separate DishPro Plus (DPP) LNBs.

In his current set-up (with DN recvr), a coax cable is coming out of his 61.5 (single LNB Dish) dish and goes into the 2LNB-box. There is only one coax cable coming out of the 2LNB-box and going to the DN Recvr...so what I suspect is that inside that 2LNB-box there is a 2-1 or 3-1 internal switch or separator of some sort...Oh and he also has a big 33 inch dish for FTA with a circular lnb for his Intelsat5 channels...

and my question is as follows...

Given that I got him Viewsat Xtreme now and knowing that now he needs to have his big FTA dish + DN package (110, 119, &61.5) what set-up would you recommned (if any) to get this to work using the built-in switch and/or viewsat's 4-1 switch? THX in ADVC
