If you want HD in your RV with your directv you will need a HD capable dish and they get expensive. I have HD directv at my house. My receiver is HD but is not a Genie, but works well in the 5wh, just no HD. I have a cheap automatic Winegard dish on my 5wh. I pd $300.00 for it and mounted it on the roof. It's not HD and I do have to go into settings on the receiver & change it to 18in dish size. I flip a switch to put 12 volt power to the dish and after it picks up the signal I switch the power back off and it's already to watch. It's pretty simple. The picture isn't quite the same quality of picture as HD at home but it's not too shabby.
