I assume you are asking about running your satellite system, not just a small TV. You need to know how much current the system takes. While the antenna is searching it probably draws the most current but I'm just guessing.

Your battery must supply the current for the TV system plus whatever else is running, the refrigerator, water pump, lights, etc. Good battery management is important, don't let your battery be discharged below 50%, that's about 12.1 volts with no load.

To much to guess at.
