If you want to get 110w/119w with your additional sat's thru the 4x1 diseqc switch on the kbox you will need to run two cables from the legacy quad to your switch not one.When running thru the diseqc you will just use the standard setting with a frequency of 11250 and set you diseqc ports accordingly.Since you won't be using a diseqc switch for the pansat you can run just one cable from any of the remaining ports on the quad to your receiver and try using these settings.

119w
lnb type:standard
lnb freq-11250
tp freq-12239
diseqc-none
legacy sw-sw42 dish #1 or quad lnb #1

110w
lnb type-standard
lnb freq-11250
tp freq-12224
diseqc-none
legacy sw-sw42 dish #2 or quad lnb #2

Note:I know lot's of folks use the dn legacy lnb's without issues but i personally am not a fan of them as they due tend to latch on to one port and not switch during channels changes.

If your going to be running diseqc switches to both units then yes you will need (2) cables from the legacy quad to each switch.If your not going to be running more then 110w/119 on the pansat then there is no need for the diseqc as you can run just one cable from the legacy quad to your receiver.
