OT: DirecTV w/TiVo

Got a question about the installation of a DirecTV TiVo box. I've already got DirecTV, it's a dual LNB dish that is connected to my home's built-in cable system (house built in 96 I think) through a single line from the dish to the box on the outside of the house. I have only a single reciever inside the house, that takes the signal from a wall socket.
DirecTV says you need two inputs for the TiVo box. Can I just buy one of those $20 Monster 2 GHz splitters and split the signal coming from the socket I'm currently using, or would something more complicated be involved. At $115 delivered & installed (the offer on DirecTV's website) for a 70 hour box, it looks like a pretty sweet deal. Unless I end up having to run a new cable through my house just to get it to work. Thanks,
jeff
