Moving into a new home in January and I want to keep things as simple as possible. Will this work?

I want to use the new Dish 1000 and feed 2 721s, a 508, 510 and 811.

I have a DP34 already.
I buy the splitters for the 721s (4) and a DP44

I run from Dish 1000 to DP44
2 outputs to a 721
2 outputs to the other 721
Cascade a DP34 from DP44 to feed 508, 510 and 811.

I'll want to use the splitters for the 721s to use one coax to each room...

Have I got it right?
 
Try it this way instead:

NO SPLITTERS! You're looking for a DPP Separator for the dual tuner receivers.

From the DPP44
- 1 output to a DPP Separator to a 721
- 1 output to a DPP Separator to the other 721
- 2 outputs to any other 2 receivers
- Trunk the DP34 off the DPP44 for the 5th receiver.

If you're actually able to run 2 outputs to each 721, just get another DP34.

Make sure your Dish1000 has a DP Twin/DP Dual or 3 DP Duals because the DP34 can not be used with the DPP Twin.
 
Thanks...I used the wrong terminology about splitters/seperators. The last line regarding the DPP Twin not working with a DP34 is where I'd have gone wrong and started banging my head against a wall.
