Why not get one of those RS switches. The one I have can be trained to switch to whatever remote you are using. Ie if you're using a dishnet remote, one button that will switch you to the dishnet receiver, and one button on your Fortec will switch you to that receiver.
I have 8 different sat receivers, and a DVD player and a Roku going into 1 TV which only has 2 inputs, and basically do it with 2 switches plus a little trickery with my TIVOs.
