Your motor home *IS* a house, So if it works in a house it should work in a motor home.

you may need a dish type antenna though (in fact you WILL need a dish) one specificlly designed for DirecHDTV, these are quite a bit different than all the other assorted Sat dishes out there. Antenna can be roof mounted automatic or ground mount manual, IN fact if you have the first, I strongly recommend the 2nd just in cuss.
The swim will wotk with the winegard 3500. But you will need to change the head of the 3500 to a swim head and then add the power unit. A single coax from the roof will run to the swim unit power pack which is inside the coach. From there you just plug to the splitter.
Everything aims the same. The swim was orginal set up so the installer didn't need to go under a house to add extra coax cables.
