Q: Will this work with all Directv HDTV Receivers?
A: Yes, though not all boxes are "receivers". If your set top box is very small and starts with the letter "C", it's not a receiver but what Directv calls a "client". In this case, this box does not work without the large main Genie receiver also in the system. We recommend just using the main receiver from your home. You'll know it's the main because it's larger than the clients.
Q: What satellite can I pick up with the Dish Antenna?
A: You will receive most all your programming you receive at home. The only channels that you may or may not receive are your local channels. This is because those channels are broadcast usually within a certain distance of the city they're broadcast out of.

Not compatible (my fault, but working)
Received my satellite tripod kit, and attempted to test it out using my home box. However, I could not get a signal. Dead in the water. After reading the fine print again, I noticed that my DirectTV receiver was model HR44, and not on Oasis' list of compatible receivers. However, I moved into an apartment over the weekend, and was having DirectTV installed there, so I had the tripod and dish set up when the technician arrived. After installing a different LNB and a SWM converter, the system is working perfectly for my apartment, and will not require any mods for RV use.

Worst customer service ever encountered
Satellite oasis is a middleman for directive. The product the ship is fine. Their customer service is not. They don't respond at all to inquiries made through their own systems. You can get this set up elsewhere. Given this distributors disinterest in customers, I would suggest that you do..

HD For MN Lake Cabin
I purchased this unit to have HD DirecTV at our seasonal lake cabin in Northern Minnesota. Works Great! Assembly & set-up instructions were easy to follow. Had a little trouble finding the satellite signal based on our location. Got DirecTV customer service on the phone for help and they got me going with a 91-92 strong signal on SAT 101. Enjoying all our normal programming when not boating. Recommended to (2) people on our RV resort who will be looking to buying this week.

Easy Setup !
I purchased this for my Brother-in-Law who was going to a friends lake house and wanted to watch the Final Four games. It arrived in Dallas about 36 hours after I ordered it and was very easy to setup. I set it up in my backyard so I could demonstrate how to tune it in. It took less than 20 minutes to get a good HD signal and clear picture. I have set up my own DirecTv equipment many times, but two days later my Brother-in-Law was able to set it up at the lake with me on the phone in about 30 minutes. We got a very strong signal (96 on SAT 101) and they watched all the games. This was a Great Purchase and will be used many times this year.

HD For Your RV
I was skeptical that I could get this to work properly, but pleased to see that it works just as described. It takes a bit of patience to learn the nuances of the commands within DirecTV, but each move is described in the handbook. Some of my screens looked slightly different, or I would have a different screen before getting to the one that was shown, but through trial and error I made it to success. I did have my dish on the wrong satellite at first, and that was frustrating. The Azimuth directional degree(s) was not easy to get lined up. I found that mine was something less than what DirecTV posted. The only negative I would have would be the compass. It is not something that I would depend on. I had to use an app or my phone compass to get readings that I thought I could trust.
I will warn you, customer service is not acceptable. I only got a live person on one phone call. That person was helpful. The many other times I called I was either informed "No one is available to take your call...goodbye!", or I was able to leave a message and never received a returned call. NOT GOOD! This is the reason that the product does not receive 5 stars. Great product (but for the compass), terrible service!
