Winegard stationary road trip mission and directtv

Hi everyone,
We just ordered a Directtv sat receiver fron winegard. Not sure what to expect. Read a bunch of stuff and maybe a bit confused on how all this works. We have a Fleetwood Southwind 2016. It seems to be prewired to accept the receiver. Pretty sure we won't get HD tv cause of one LNB. Even if we don't get high def will the picture still be good and once you hook it up with Direct Tv do you have to call them each time you move to a new location? I was hoping for it to be as easy as once you arrive at your site and you set everything you normally do and turn on the Winegard sat equiptment to locate the satellite you're ready to go. So does any one of my fellow RVers have the answers that may be able to explain this system prior to us setting this up and wat to expect!! As always we appreciate the help and hope to be some assistance to others.

Thanks and safe travels,
Keith and Sharyn Reo and Molly

You only have to call Direct TV if you want to receive the local channels where you are located. The dome will find the sattelite and you can receive the others channels with out calling.
