In-line splitter for Satelite?

We currently have a satelite dish (supplied by Sky). Although we are in Auckland, where we live is in a UHF black spot.  There are 3 cables connected to the LNB on the dish.  2 of these go to sky boxes in different living areas and one to a freeview box in a sleep-out.  I want to install another freeview box in a bedroom.  

I don't have suitable equipment to safely climb up to the dish, so i was wondering if it is possible to split one of the 3 existing cables 2 ways, with a 2 way splitter under the house, and leave the other two cables as they are.

I've attached a photo of the LNB taken from the ground to show the configuration with the 3 cables.

I have downloaded 2 images of the way mine are set up . The 1st shows 2 LNB going in and 2 going to 2 different floors the top goes to 4 freeview & 1 sky box and the bottom goes to a single freeview box , and the 2nd image is the splitter that has the 4 freeview and 1 sky box running through it and both are all power splitter boxes

So you should have no problems setting them up
