I have not taken the time yet to take a picture, but here is a synopsis of how one of my systems is hooked up here at the house, and works the same way in the Hanna. First, I have two receivers in this stick house with 4 televisions. All four TV's can independently watch their own channel with only two leads coming into the stick house.

One system(not DVR) Dish 322 Receiver

DPD-2, Satellite UHF/VHF Diplexer, 5-2150 Mhz

One input
One vhf/uhf out
One Sat out

Dish Separator, 850-2150 Mhz

INPUT
Satellite OUTPUT
Satellite OUTPUT

Satellite feed (only one) goes into the DPD-2
From the DPD-2, one output goes to the input of the Dish Separator.
The VHF/UHF is a feed back line from the back of the Dish receiver "CH Output" coax, or "distibution output," coax connector

The Dish Separator feeds Sat 1 and Sat 2 inputs on the receiver

In the case of the Montana 3400RL, there are two RF connector boxes in the overhead of the TV. On is a jumper. Remove the jumper from the top connector and run the "feed back line" described above to that connector.

Enjoy two TV's connected to Satellite with two separate remotes for controlling the RF Channels to the back TV. This is assuming that you have the 522 or 722 Dish Receiver. Direct TV should work similarly
