system consists of a 4dtv dsr 922 receiver, a tv set and a regular c band lnb.

Basically, you need a receiver for each TV, and a seperate feed from the lnbf for each receiver, for independent viewing on two TV's . There are lots of slightly different combinations on that theme, but that one receiver can't support two channels at once.

So if i get another receiver for the second tv how do i get the signal to each receiver from the lnb.

One other thing to consider is which provider are you purchasing programming from? If you stay on W5 all of the time it would be easier to do what you want to do.

This does not answer my question of splitting the signal from the lnb to both receivers. Do i need a switch or some other device

You have to have a dual output c band lnbf or a dual lnb c band feedhorn with two seperate c band lnb's connected to a multiswitch that allows each receiver fo select the appropriate polarity lnb when you change channels.

On an arrangement like you describle for subscription programming, you would have to buy all your programming on the W5 satellite @105W.
Then the dish does not have to move. Those dual c band feedhorns are on ebay right now cheap!
