OK, thanks again for all the advice and help. Based on the info provided, I updated my own instructions as shown below. We went out and tried it and it worked.
Based on the info y'all provided, I only have to reset the Direct receiver when I move it between the house and camper. Once in the camper, I won't have to reset it when we move to a new location.
And I also learned there is nothing special I need to do when we travel from the southeast to out west....like select another satellite.
Thanks again for the help,
