Dish Network Signal Problem?

I have two receivers connected to one satellite dish. I am getting channels from Satellite 110 and 119. I always lose the signal whenever I am watching something from Satellite 119 in my room, like USA or Discovery Channel, and my brother watches something from Satellite 110 in his room, like DIY or the Local Channels. Whenever he is watching something from Satellite 119, I can watch anything from Satellite 119, but I can’t watch anything on Satellite 110 Also, if I am watching something form Satellite 119 and my brother changes it to a channel on Satellite 110, I lose signal and I have to do a SWITCH in order to pick up Satellite 110. My brother can watch whatever he wants whenever he wants. I am forced to view ONLY satellite 119 OR satellite 110 because I can only receive one signal, the signal being whatever signal my brother is using, while my brother can get both of them at the same time.

Now what can I do to make my receiver receive both signals at the same time like my brothers receiver? Is it something that I can do, like open the receiver and do something on the inside, or do I have to call Dish Network and they do something from their ‘headquarters’?
