Need help: best practices backup-to-disk-to-tape

okay, here's my issue.
1. i have 2 backup-to-disk running on a friday night.
2. after those 2 are done, a duplicate backup-to-tape runs for each backup job.
3. so far i only have one backup-to-tape duplicate job running after both backup-to-disk jobs are done.
4. i only have one tape drive to run the backup-to-tape job.
 
question: can i set a schedule for a second backup-to-tape duplicate job to run after the first backup-to-tape duplicate job finishes?
 
any help would be great. i'm very new to this and i'd really appreciate any help you can give me.
 
thanks.

Provided the Time window is large enough (on the Scheduling tab of your policy), set the duplicate job to tape to run "according to rules of this template" and the second job should follow after the tape drive has finished the first duplicate.
