Can Comcat, Dish Network And Telstar5 Share TV? Please Help!

I would like to buy FIA receivers. There are many branches out there - Fortec Star, Satcruise, BEC... Which one is better and easy to install?
I have not much trouble to install Dish Network for one receiver. But I would like to install Dish Network 500 dish and Telstar 5 dish (Vietnamese VTV4) on one single pole. Is there any special clamp for two dishes that mounted on the same pole? I want one receiver in one room for Dish Network shares my existing Comcat cable. I also would like each receiver for Telstar 5 shares my existing Comcat cable in the other two rooms. What components I need to put them together so that Comcat and Dish Network come out to the same TV. And Comcat and Telstar 5 come out to the same TV in my other two rooms. I have total of five connectors of Comcat cable in my house. Do I need Splitter or/and diplexers, ground bock or switches? How can I connect to make them work for the above three rooms. Can somebody help please. Thanks.
Marvin.

I would not recommend to install 2 dishes on 1 pole. But if you have no space, get a ku dish with U-bolt mount bracket.
Installing Ku dish is a bit harder than DN since Ku signal is much weaker than DN.
If you want to combine Cable, DN and T5 audio/video sources into 1 cable which runs to other rooms, use UHF cable modulators. You can asign any channels from 14-69 for your a/v sources.
