The Wineguard Trav'ler is NOT programmable for the EA, no matter what lnb you attach to it. This question has come up fairly often and Wineguard has clearly stated that there is NO configuration available.

Second, the Winegard Travler is just an automatic 1000.2 dish -- and there is an EA LNB for the 1000.2 (bottom of web page).
I'm pretty sure you could replace the Travler's Western Arc LNB with the EA LNB. But would it work? Love to try it.
