Ok I think this should work, but want to get some expert opinions. I have a SD receiver and 2 SD DVR's, 1 dish. I already have a multiswitch installed. Just purchsed 2nd SD DVR and want to hook up both tuner inputs on the new reciever. In theory I should be able to hook up another multiswitch to two of the outputs of the original? Since the multiswitch turns one side into horizontal and the other vertical, the same would happen for the second switch and in essence become and extension of the first switch, correct?

This would take me from 2 in/4 out (original switch) to 2 in/6 out(switches piggybacked). Am I way off on this or should this work?
 
Yeah, I would like to just buy a single switch with more outs, but it is holiday time and the better half is trying to watch the $$$ and it is not an absolute need for the 2 tuners right now, but I am impatient and opting for the cheaper route right now. Thanks for the input.
