    Yes you buy a quad LMB for example and then you can run 2 cables.

          Simple answer is No.

          Each box requires a direct feed to the LNB on the dish.

          The loop on the box or a splitter could be used but only one box would work at anyone time and the other needs to be off.

            you can't use a splitter with sat cable.
            read the threads on problems with more than 1 receiver on a quad lnb.
