Winegard Satellite Dish

I hope this is the proper place to ask this.
I have a winegard traveller dish.
Its set to Direct TV.
Does anyone know what I need to do to allow me to use Shaw Direct?

I may be mistaken, but I think Shaw requires a different Trav'ler and the DirecTV one is not compatible.

Lt Dan is correct , none of the other Winegard trav'ler models can be converted
to Shaw. You will need to buy a Shaw Trav'ler model and sell the Direct one.
Mounting the Shaw in place of the Direct shouldn't be too hard as the base appears to be the same on both, but not 100% sure.
