Looking at the Winegard website and comparing the Direct to the Shaw units, they probably use the same turret/arms and the Shaw dish is the largest of the 3 Travlers. My Shaw controller will let me enter several sats manually. I am sure that 101 is one of them but, I would expect a new controller may be required. The lnb arm length is related to the focal length and the dishes are very much equivalent curvatures so, theoretically changing the lnb and arm might satisfy the hardware side of the conversion. Most of my question is because a friend of mine may be wanting to switch to Direct TV from Shaw and the Travler is a fairly expensive unit to be replacing completely.
FYI, Bell Canada and Dish network are very similar and many of those dishes can be used for either network. Maybe the Dish network conversion is possible for the Shaw travler as well.
I thought someone here might have done a conversion or have seen a conversion.
