We have the same dish which came on our trailer which we bought used in 2006. We take along a H24 receiver from home. It is only SD but we don't care. We can get news from our home area in the west as it has a large spot zone. I have called Direct at times and changed my location so we can get local news. We get those cable channels we want to watch. Of all the campgrounds we have stayed in over the past 11 years I can only remember one that we couldn't get a signal due to an obstruction (tree). I make sure to ask for a satellite accessible site. I can have it all set up in about 10 minutes using the zip code of where we at by typing it into the on screen instructions. That is the good thing about SD, only one satellite to find. I'll miss it if it goes away.
I do have a portable dish also and did use that one time the roof dish was obstructed. It is harder to get set IMO.
