I am wandering if it is possible to use the mulitswitch that comes with the high def dish using two regular 18 inch round dishes. I know that HD HBO comes in with the one dish but i am trying to get HDnet.

Yes. I've used 3 round dishes to pick up DirecTV 101,110, and 119. The round dish for 110 had the SAT C LNB installed on it. So it can be done.

I currently have my dish aimed to 135 degrees. Where would I aim the second dish and at what elevation?

Select "Dish pointing" under "Technology" on the left.

Go through the menu on your receiver, it will tell you where to point the dish, remember they are about 7 degrees off, it usually gives you one direction use your common sense to find out exactly where it is. HD HBO comes in on 119. remember 7 degrees.
