I won the battle but lost the war! Thanks for all the troubleshooting help on getting my Direct TV to work with the old RCA receiver and raise our MotoSat dish. I found out that the telephone line input at the back of the RCA receiver in our RV, should have been moved over to the low speed data port, which is side by side and looks the same. A repair guy told me that's the most common mistake folks made.
I hooked it up properly and right away, it directed the MotoSat dish to the satellite. I was able to talk Direct TV into activating the old RCA receiver but they told me that this week, they are turning off the RCA receivers and will no longer support them as they are too old. So I have about 4 days in which to enjoy it! Technology marches on. I'm not sure if direct tv really will turn off the RCA receivers this week on Dec. 18th, but that's what they told me.
Thanks
