just a splitter at the back of the installed recievers

What splitter.??? your Dish100 doesn't need a switch.. you use the built-in switch in the DPP, and set the receiver accordingly...

119-port 1, 110-2, 129-3

A splitter is a indication of a sub dual tuner stb. You can't use a splitter in a fta setup. A DPP lnb has an internal 3x2 diseqc switch. Meaning you can run 2 receivers on 3 sats. You make the proper diseqc setting in setup menu. 119=1, 110=2, 129=3.
BUT dpp lnbs are power hogs and don't work very good with fta receivers unless they get help with power from another source. If you have a long cable run then LOL getting it to work. Me I'd get a DP twin and replace the dpp. If you want to use more then 1 receiver you will also need a DP34 switch.

Are you presently using a subbed Dish receiver on that Dish1000.?? and if so, do you plan on keeping it as a sub.??

If that is the case, then its pretty simple to connect up an FTA.. since the subbed ird would provide ample power for the CW.. Simply run a second cable from the DPP outputs, and connect straight to your CW... 119 would be DiseqC port 1, 110-2, 129-3
