i have an older dual feed dish on the roof. and it works fine......

i have a DTV DVR in the living room and a plain reciever in the bedroom and one kids room. everything works fine untill i try and split one of those outputs from the splitter in the attic (4 way) w/ a 2nd splitter so i can get a signal to my reciver in the garage. onceits all hooked up, i loose channels here and there on 3 of the 4 TV's. i guess i need a single 5 way (or more) splitter since i have a need for 5 rx signlas (2 for the DVR and 1 each for the 2 bedrooms and the garage).
whats the correct fix for this? do i needa 4 output head on the dish? anyone know of any 5/6 way splitters?
anyone here work or worked for DTV?

Found these guys pretty quick: http://www.satpro.tv

Sounds like you need a wider multiswitch to distribute the signals. The Zinwell gear (like the 4803), according to their site, is DirecTv approved.
