How can I receive DISH programming from two locations with a single non-movable dish?
You cant. In order to receive programming from both orbital positions, subscribers must install two separate dishes, one of which must point at the 119 degree orbital position and the other must point at either 61.5 in the eastern part of the U.S. or 148 in the western half. EchoStar sells a second dish upgrade package for about $100 which can be purchased by viewers who want to receive all of the available programming. EchoStar includes a signal combiner in this package which allows the signals from the two satellites to be combined into a single cable into the home so it is not necessary to run additional cabling. All existing and future decoders can receive programming from two orbital positions. Once installed, viewers will not be able to tell when they are switching between the various satellites and orbital positions.
