We have a 2011 Landmark Grand Canyon 5th wheel with a OE rooftop Direct TV antenna. We have never had a subscription but now I’d like to activate it & switch to DISH for football season. I understand I need to get the LNB & Reflector which seems fairly easy but not sure about the issues I will encounter in getting the signal to the 3 TVs, living room, bedroom & basement & ordering/installing receiver(s). Any thoughts, suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

When we decided to go to a roof mounted unit, we went with RF Mogul system, instead of the Traveler by Dish. The RF Mogul system can be repaired while on the rig, Traveler cannot. But the RF Mogul is a couple hundred more, they can wire the rig to what you want.
We had our installed in January 2021, in August 2021 we had an issue of the antenna would not lock on a satellite. Even since our installation was in Goodyear, Az., we called them. They gave us a number to the manufacturer, in Utah, and they put us in touch with a repair guy in Tenn. The repair guy called, walked me thru several steps and determined it was the control box that went bad. All within about 3-4 hours.
He got our address, sent it the company. The company called us, verified the address and sent the new box out. We got it 2 days later. I called the repair guy by, as he wanted, and we went thru the test again and verified it was working.
Now the kicker here was, we received a phone call from the company president, another veteran, explaining what happened and thanking us for being their customers. But he called a week later to make sure we were still happy, and system was still working.
