I am only asking about the coax in the trailer. Is the coax cable, or whatever it may be using, different for cable tv than the satellite coax. So, no. it doesn't matter if it's DirecTV or Dish.

But the one i have, the remote only works the DirecTV receiver, but I don't know if will work down the hallway. Worth a try though. Thanks everyone!
Yes, you either need a completely separate cable for satellite and TV or there is a slight chance you could modify the connection with an A/B switch to handle one at a time.
As I mentioned, it's likely the only existing coax you have that will handle satellite is the one working connection which you have located. If you want a 2nd receiver at a different location you would likely need to run a new 2nd cable from the outside to that location.
