Sats 110 and 119 are circularly polarized, so you need a circular LNB. But you may have a problem getting both of the sats on a 39 inch dish. You will most likely need to skew the dish unless you happen to be located at approx 115 degrees west. Most 39 inch dishes do not have a skew adjustment. A 39 inch dish will do a wonderful job on a single satellite, or get two dishes, one for each sat (110 and 119). A single dish would work if motorized.

You can use either a Dish legacy twin if you're receiver is older than 301.13. Or Dishpro twin or twin+.Both types can usually be found for auction at ebay. My Dishpro twin was $9.99 + shipping.

Need skew adjustment for the stock "Y" adapter, Otherwise if you have some time and want to get creative some fabricating and you could make your own lnb mount for the lnb's. Advantage, 39" dish you'll probably never have rain fade unless a hurricane takes your dish away!!!
