Question Connecting OTA coax to existing DISH cabling??? Anyone done it???

Am cutting the cord. Ready to connect rooftop(chimney) antenna to 1) main HDTV and 2)second set in bedroom.
I've read in other forums about connecting the new RG6 run from a rooftop antenna into the DISH "drop???" box (exterior, under actual dish). Or, at the mounting head connected to the actual dish.
I'm trying to escape running extra wiring for the second (bedroom) set...and benefit from what's already there.
It's a long run for the new coax...so I'll probably have to use an amp somewhere along the way.
Any thoughts much appreciated. Dan
