Adding 61.5 to pick up missed channels?

Two questions.

I'm thinking of adding the sports package and was wondering if I would be able to get all the SD/HD sports channels. I currently get 110,118,119, and 129. I "think" I would be good for all the SD channels but would be missing the following channels on HD which are on 61.5. Is this correct? Or am I missing any others?

5438 SNY (438)
5434 NESN (434)
5435 CSNNE (435)

Would I be able to add 61.5 to my DP44 along with 110,118,119, and 129 and have them all running at the same time? If not, I don't use 118 anymore since they moved my locals. So could I hook up 61.5,110,119, and 129 to the DP44 without any problems?
(I have the extra dish and transponder)

Thanks!

You would have to eliminate the 118 from the switch because the switch can only accomodate four satellites.
 
You can have 5 by cascading the output of a DPP44 through a DP21. A dual-tuner receiver will require 2 DP21s and 2 outputs off the DPP44 since the DP21 is not a Plus switch.
